02/20/2014 Very intimate camerawork effectively (except a few times when there was too much playing around with the focus on the protagonist's face) directs and redirects our attention through the movie as we almost share this young man's tortured existence. An uncomfortable movie. See more 02/23/2013 Apart from the boldness of ideology & delivery, every thing remains blank & unanswered. See more 09/11/2012 An isolated portrait of a man battling hunger and pride. Sophisticated, raw, engrossing. Don't expect any easy answers, explanations or much in the way of plot. This film is very simple and experiential. See more Read all reviews
