Storyline
Featured review
I didn't have high expectations when I watched it for the first time (Watched it twice already) but what a pleasant surprise! It's a well thought out film that is not afraid of being different, in fact the film embraces its weirdness and it works quite well, like a big jigsaw puzzle without any time stamps. The director bets on our capability to understand what's going on within the frame, he gives us plenty of hints so we can catch up with the two different time lines and he does all this without saying much, dialogue is kept to a minimum, less is more! After all is said is done, this film is a great conversation starter with friends and family. I repeat myself, what a pleasant surprise!
