Daft Punk’s Electroma - 2006
What not to expect: Dialog or Daft Punk music.
What to expect: Very drawn out scenes, not so subtile Kubrick influences, other people in the room to say things like “How the fuck can you watch this?” and a possible quasi understanding of French Art House filmmaking.

In late 70’s, a keeper of a rubber company worked out the prototype of the UFO house using his own factory. He want to build a contemporary style holiday resort. However, the rubber company closed down in the energy crisis in 1980. The UFO houses that was just begining was sealed up by the bank. In that time, there was only foundation and FPR compoments.

They planed to make it 5 stars resort hotel with the first yacht dock in the north coast of Taiwan. According their plan, the FPR UFO structure will be white, and there will be swimming pool and rockery in the garden
