Une succession de plans fixes, souvent superbes, et de plans animés dont on cherche en vain le projet. Quelques beaux moments de poésie qui ne suffisent hélas pas à sauver ce film de l'ennui... Et de l'oubli. Dommage.

FISCHER's rating of the film The Buried Forest
FISCHER

Des prises de vue souvent magnifiques pour une histoire vaporeuse et ténue, à la lisière fantasmagorique d'un imaginaire fécond et fluctuant, qui installe une durable et discrète harmonie intergénérationnelle imprégnée d'une diffuse légèreté émotionnelle, en permanente surimpression, au fil d'une histoire foncièrement évanescente... www.cinefiches.com

Yes, a story is a vehicle. We get on and ride, and that's our life.
