Everything Beautiful Is Far Away

It's a minimalist film set in a world outside of the logic and rules of existence/physics we know.

The directing and cinematography are phenomenal and draw you in while the plot moves slowly unfolding in a labyrinth of very subtle metaphors along the way.

All great things said about the directing and photography, it is a low budget film and you can tell at times, whether that is intentional or not it can take the viewer out of the film. With some polishing on set design/wardrobe, lighting/location, and color/look it would make a phenomenal film and a great cult classic addition to indie film.

The pace is slow. But the music succeeds in creating a strange atmosphere. Acting is impeccable. I agree with other reviewers that say that you have to be in the mood to watch such a movie. Now, can someone explain to me how a girl with milky white skin spend days in the desert without getting sunburns?

it's a low-budget indie sci-fi/fantasy. a little bit of romance in there as well.

I'm watching this movie without knowing anything about it, never heard of it and never seen the trailer, so I have a minimum expectation. and I love it.

if you expect to see a dystopian world with lots of conflicts or a survival journey for a better world or life, you won't get it in here.

it's a light movie, pretty straightforward. there is nothing much happening in this movie, you don't really get a huge conflict, which gives me positive vibes to the story, and somehow uplifting.

the cinematography is great, and I love the bright color.

My wife and I liked this movie a lot. It's a little slow-moving, but far from boring. The plot requires some obvious suspension of disbelief, but not too much to enjoy the film. The main characters are bit different, but endearing and not caricatures.

If you think science fiction movies require massive explosions, space ships and special effects then you'll be disappointed. But this movie is well written, well acted, well photographed and well worth your time to watch!

This is definitely something else. Slowburning, quirky, intriguing and lovely. AND quite original. With beautiful photography and music.

Unknow little gem, with only 22 reviews on Imdb, mine included. How is that possible?

The story: Julia Garner in a terrific role as one of 2 persons wandering through the desert in search for a lake. That's all there is to see. They wander around the desert, they drink, they eat, they talk to a robot...

Best suited for an arthouse audience, who likes quirky, slowburning tales.
