Much interested me. However, the culminating scene where the main characters argue about conscience and the human responsibility seems either too much or not enough... One might say: these characters are just regular people and to force an indepth philosophical discussion might be jarring. But I think it needed more thought, that is all. Also, Eros by Hara has the only birth scene I can tolerate in a film (oy!).

beautiful

It's always refreshing to watch a film that is stripped of spectacle and allegory, and that relies on simple, poignant storytelling.

A quiet, tender account of harm and accident. The accident of existence. Strong performances set amidst beautiful landscapes. The "oomph" of the penultimate scene might have been better woven throughout, but all in all a poetic film.

Human and real: complex. Subtly gets under the surface of feeling.

very sad & sweet.

Two broken people come together to form a less than perfect union but one that is perhaps better than what they leave behind and with time may even provide fulfillment. A not particularly original story however it is well told and the performances are strong. I do wish they had spent some time explored the isolated space the story takes place in a bit more.

Bernardo Anderson

Beautiful scenery and a heart-wrenching story. I was captivated the entire time.

Francesco Sullo

Hypnotic and poignant. Beautifully filmed. Great acting.

I thought it was very good up until the penultimate scene.

empty scenes, slow plot development and isolated surroundings, together with dramatic storyline - is all announcing a movie that may have something to pay attention to. But, unfortunately I see a plot that is not very well executed and is just wrapped in a beautiful scenery. I see a bit of L.V. Trier Antichrist in it but just as a movie that could have been an inspiration for this film....
