Alice, Through the Looking

Alice, Through the Looking[1] (full title Alice, Through the Looking: À La Recherche d'Un Lapin Perdu) is a 2021 British German political satirical comedy film directed by Adam Donen, inspired by the novels Alice's adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll[2][3] The film is produced by 12th Battalion productions and Czar Germany.

[4] It stars Saskia Axten, Vanessa Redgrave, Sophie Vavasseur, Steven Berkoff, Elijah Rowen, Slavoj Zizek and Carol Cleveland.

The film follows Alice (Saskia Axten) a young student who stumbles into a bizarre version of London after her night with a newfound lover, Rabbit (Elijah Rowen) appears to suddenly have never happened.

The night in question just happens to be the evening of the UK's 2016 referendum on EU membership.

The film itself periodically shifts to different layers of narrative, from the Alice in Wonderland adapting narrative of Alice's search for Rabbit in an upside-down version of London, to a satirical "real world" scenario, showing philosophers and the "director" (played by Adam Donen) reacting to the film they are planning.
