CQ is a movie for movie-lovers, by a movie-lover: Roman Coppola, son of Francis Ford and a successful commercial and video director in his own right, making a witty, whimsical feature debut.
CQ is modest, especially for something bearing the grandiose family name, and it possesses both a tenderness and a quiet intelligence.
There are two films within the film; one is a sci-fi epic in the vein of Barabarella, which is hilariously on key, the other is the main characters' personal documentary, and is a perfect satire of pretentious film making.
