Stéphane Drouot's short brings civilian ordinariness into space and is appealing primarily as a formal exercise in staging and camera work. While the idea that even in the era of humanity’s expansion into space there will still be social chasms and enclaves, when ordinary people will futilely dream of the luxury seen in lifestyle consumer magazines, remains topical, it is the image of the world in Star Suburb that is captivating. Stylistically, the film is reminiscent of contemporary French creative works giving rise to cinema du look, such as the early shorts by the duo Caro-Jeunet and Besson’s initial projects.
