- Synopsis
- Hollywood, in the twenties. An action sequence stuntman is hospitalized after a fall that leaves him unable to walk. There he finds the support of Alexandria, a young girl with a broken arm who he makes a promise to: he is going to tell her the most marvelous story in the world. The story soon goes beyond all limits, taking the movie to the farthest corners of the world. The Fall recovers a Bulgarian film from the eighties, takes it to the epicenter of the dream factory and enhances it with an impeccable making.

- Critics' reviews

-
"The Fall lives and dies on the strength of Pace and Untaru's remarkable performances. It's there that the pulsing heart of this magical-real film beats most true."
-
"This convoluted, arbitrary, overlong whimsy will strike most grown-ups as childish, and is far too violent and pretentious for kids."
-
"It's the most glorious, wonderful mess put onscreen since Terry Gilliam's 'Brazil.'"
-
"It has a rich premise and no lack of amazements. What it lacks in any sort of dramatic shape."
