If you feel like escaping into the wild and you love beautiful scenery, and are into films about personal relationships and grief, them this is the film for you. Great understated acting, and some tantalising mysteries that make you want to keep watching. Makes me want to live in a cabin in the woods except bears terrify me, and I live in Australia where bushfires or poisonous animals will probably get me, and I'm hopeless at chopping wood, so as a city slicker I guess I should stick to my nettle and settle for these types of films where I can enjoy the scenery from my living room and live vicariously through a camera lens.
Setting aside some thankfully rare moments of unnecessary gratuitous violence, I quite enjoyed the hypnotic slow pace of this series and the variety of philosophical, sociological and pyschological themes covered. It felt very European including a number of stories that aren't formulaic meaning that you have no idea what the next episode has in store.
A great story with great acting, a very interesting modern twist on Christian mythology that doesn't shy away from exposing the social issues of contemporary Italy. Great viewing for Christians and non-Christians alike (but perhaps a bit violent for younger kids).
