It was the specific intention of the director Luc Besson, to create a story that feels like it was a dream, a fantasy of another world, and thus facilitate his narrative goal of allegory.
Whether he succeeded in that or did it in an effective way is a whole other problem, but it was NOT he tried to make the story as serious-toned as a psudo-documentary yet failed miserably.
