Review by andreasphilip

This film was an absolute jewel. I had the fortune of watching it at the Venice film festival and it blew my mind. Life, death, time, aging, desire, shame, guilt are all present in the kindest, most accepting, most forgiving manner. The way every single connection and emotional state is adumbrated in a layered, sensitive, and incredibly empathic way, is unparalleled. The acting is so immediate that when slight eye movements and almost imperceptible facial expressions are put to the service of the story. The direction is masterful and yet always accessible. Every single scene is a blossoming emotional storm.
