This one showed up on a recommended viewing list. Interesting concept that just didn't work in its execution. One of those movies that starts out with a kind of gloomy, depressing, feel to it and that just permeates through every scene all the way till the end. It just plods along. I recommend skipping this one.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

The Age (Australia)

It’s an exceptional cast, and they fill out the premise with subtle inflections and authentic desire -- the romantic wins out.

Doesn’t learn any hard truths about the difference between people’s idea of love and the real presence of it.

Pallavi Keswani

The Hindu

The film knows that it is about the frictions that emerge when humanity is rendered through technology, but does not fully reach out to explore a spectrum of emotions. In short, this love story also plays it safe.

Bill Newcott

The Saturday Evening Post

For his first English-language film, Greek director and co-writer Christos Nikou goes to absurdist lengths examining the most basic of human quandaries: Is love really a thing?
