Wilbur Wants to Kill Himself
Aroview: 'Dogme' film by way of Scotland, that surveys the doings of four childlike adults, achieving a curious dual tone of whimsical drama and gallows humour.
Two Glaswegian brothers - a suicidal depressive and his older protecter - interface with the world through their ramshackle secondhand bookshop, befriending various persons from the nearby hospital.

4 stars (Very Good) Wilbur, depressive and cynical, habitually attempts suicide, while his older brother encourages him to work in their inherited bookshop. When a vulnerable customer enters their lives, Wilbur becomes less self-obsessed. Quirky, bone-dry humour. ~GenXGirl
