Watched this because I really liked "Heaven's Story" by the same director. I still liked and would recommend that movie over this one, but this is good too. It's well made from every aspect. One of the main characters may challenge you to wonder if you should like him or be terrified all the way to the end, and I would say that that is one of the most interesting aspects of the film. I can't think of another character in a movie that did that to me to the degree that this film did. That said, there is so much darkness that I was feeling pretty down most of the time watching it. I guess that's part of life, (but sometimes really really bad stuff happens right?) and sometimes we can find some resolution where none should be found. That seems to me to be the theme, and I felt a bit better at the end, but I would recommend having something a bit cheerier on hand to pick your mood up after watching this.

...well; first, I want to say that I read the critics and these guys seems that cannot understand a film that is not 2+2=4; if you know what I am saying.

-Is about personal demons regarding your own mind, the society and the cultural environment where you have been raised. Not "All" is for all and despite your good intentions, sometimes is not possible to take apart the past and the loneliness seems a too long punishment.

Acting is very good by most. Camera work for my taste is too handy and shaky. Color palette is correct for the mood but luck of light overall.
