This movie is quite exceptional. The director and the actors created a masterpiece in which human emotions and thoughts about the consequences of (anomic) acts are explored in-depth. Although it might seem impossible to evoke all these emotions and reflections in an artistic format that otherwise is characterised by dialogues and (often grotesque) action, it is precisely this what is accomplished by means of a full set of intriguing looks and a few dozens of phrases almost never leading to a real conversation. Some critics have pointed out that the movie is too slow. That just isn't right nor fair: although 'action' in a traditional sense is barely present, this picture is moving in all possible meanings of the word. There's even a lot of tension and excitement in the story as it is visually told and carefully build up, as will certainly be recognized by everyone who enjoyed Alexandr Sokurov's Whispering Pages. A wonderful piece of art!

... View MoreWhen watching this movie you really feel the emotions of the characters in the movie as if it were your own emotions. Is it visually slower than other movies, but that makes it so deep and natural. As if you become one with the characters and the story line. The locations and the images are often breathtakingly beautiful and add to the emotions. It makes an overall experience that is rarely seen in cinema today. -C-
