The Place of No Words

I love poetry. I love thinking and having a little bit of room to explore thoughts and ideas. That may very well help explain my appreciation for this film.

The first five minutes or so turned me off. Because I didn't understand. But I settled in and relaxed into it. I was treated to a trip of magical adventure supported by the observation of the ordinary world. I was in.

Very much not an ordinary linear film, there were moments that confused me, but then it became all too clear and beautifully executed.

I loved the characters in the movie. I loved the story. I was impressed with the persistent ability to surprise me and go beyond my expectations. Lovely little poem of a film.
