Almamula

Watched this at the Berlinale film festival a couple of weeks ago.

To start, this film has some of the most beautiful cinematography I have seen. There are some odd moments story-wise, which seem out of place, and it is slow at points, but the themes are and metaphors are obvious in a way that heightens the story. The ending feels a little anticlimactic. Ambiguous endings are fine if done well, but to me it misses the mark a little... The audio was mixed poorly or the room I watched it in sounded bad. I'm not certain which it was, but this may be more noticeable to me as o spend my life mixing audio... Help.

Nitpicking aside, it's a great film, and well worth a watch. It's flaws are outweighed by its sheer beauty and wit. 7.5 / 10.
