Frank Scheck Hollywood Reporter A cool slice of European minimalist drama. Jul 17, 2006 Full Review Nathan Lee New York Times Of all the modes of modern alienation, there is none so persistent and arbitrary as finding oneself trapped in a glacially paced European art film. Rated: 1.5/5 Jul 6, 2006 Full Review Michael Atkinson Village Voice ...it's an oasis of visual gravity, firmly tripod-rooted to the ground and entirely free of handheld manipulations. Sharply acted under the restrictive circumstances, the film might be too preconceived for its own good... Jul 5, 2006 Full Review Boyd van Hoeij european-films.net The performances from her actors are tops, but what steals the show is Leopold's mastery of her visual language, dominated by Richard van Oosterhout's sumptuous widescreen lensing. May 2, 2006 Full Review Les Wright culturevulture.net Leopold skillfully and self-assuredly draws the audience in, using the sparse and understated timbre of classic French new wave.

Audience Member If you want answers and dialogue this isn't a movie for you. There is plenty of imagery though, very evocative. Don't watch it if you are feeling sleepy though. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member It could have been beauty, but with lots of looong shots it's nothing. I don't feel empathy with the characters and it's a boring 90 min. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
