Review by ian-39125

Beautifully photographed but ultimately unsatisfying. It might be too sophisticated for the likes of me but it just feels like it has at it's heart a less than hopeful premise and it does a good job of proving it. I think of my Polish friend telling me 'hope is fools mother' and this (Polish-made) film will forever be linked to that notion in my mind.

Whoever did the trailer deserves a medal because the trailer is way more interesting and compelling than the film itself. It's bleak. We live in bleak times. Perhaps it's a metaphor to us all to wake the f' up? I hope so. It's genius if it succeeds but I suspect it's all too subtle. But hey, what do I know? I'm too busy staring at that light at the end of a tunnel...
