Style
Europa employs an experimental style of cinema; combining largely black and white visuals with occasional intrusions of colour having actors interact with rear-projected footage, and layering different images over one another to surreal effect.
The film's characters, music, dialogue, and plot are self-consciously melodramatic and ironically imitative of film noir conventions.
