03/05/2022 I left the cinema after an hour. See more 07/22/2012 Great movie for being filmed within the Dogme 95 guidelines See more 11/12/2011 This is the best dogma-film I have seen so far. captivating in a mad way, in a word. See more 12/17/2010 Been sick so I've been watching all of the dogma 95 movies that I never caught in the past... I really liked this movie...apparently a lot more than most people. It was really beautiful. See more 04/28/2010 Another one of the Danish Dogme films. With the stark production and the use of digital cameras and no music score or effects of any kind, your left with a very intense experience. The two leads were very good here. Some of the scenes are just so awkward to watch, which is always a sign of a good movie. See more 09/27/2009 This movie is about a manic depressive woman that no one around her (husband, sister, father, people in general) has any clue what she is about or why she does the things she does. If you really want to understand this movie I suggest watching the 1956 "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" and consider that everyone in this movie except Kira (Stine Stengade) is actually one of the "Pod People". The swimming pool scene is a case in point. The husband doesn't really like her at all, but sticks with her because the sex is so good (at least when she is manic). I only recommend this film to manic depressives because Pod People just won't get it. This is a Dogma 95 film. I always initially find the hand-held cameras irritating but I adjust as the film goes on. I do however very much like the natural lighting and the use of music only when it is actually part of the film (listening to radio for example). Netflix seems to think the film is in Danish - I think there is at least as much Swedish in this film as Danish and there is also some English. My favorite scene: When Kira wakes up in Malmö after a night of drinking in Copenhagen. See more Read all reviews
