PARKING (1985) dir. Jacques Demy Orpheus is a world-famous pop singer with two great loves: Eurydice is his wife and a sculptress who designs his album covers, and Calaïs is his sound engineer and lover. At one of his concert rehearsals, an electrical malfunction briefly kills Orpheus, sending him to a dreary Underworld hidden in a parking lot. Hades and Persephone are willing to forgive the intrusion, as it was a clerical error, so long as Orpheus doesn't tell a soul where he's been. But when Eurydice dies of a drug overdose, Orpheus decides to go back to save his wife's soul, regardless of what Calaïs thinks. (link in title)
