    • Synopsis
    • Life is a bitch and love is a quest. And then you ship yourself off to Cuba in a box... Wrong Side Up is a comedy of manners where a love story is an excuse to meet people in search of love and understanding, people desperate to make contact with each other, whether jumping from planes, living with shop-window mannequins, making extra money by watching the neighbors having sex, or going mad out of concern for all the wars and disasters of the world. It’s a film about a father­son relationship where the son is trying to win his girl back while the father is leaving the mother for another woman and the mother seems more worried about the worsening conflict in Bosnia than about the worsening situation in the family. Its a story of a man shifting boxes at an airport cargo company who comes to like planes more than people, a story of a joker who, when things finally start looking good, can´t resist making one more joke.
