      Audience Member i didn't get to see the first 50 minutes... but sounded good. xD well, the rest of the movie is. why shouldn't the first 50 minutes be? Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member The photography is really good, good acting... good, believable story. It is very slow-paced though, which didn't bother me, but not a good choice for people who do. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member I still feel like this movie didn't do anything unique or new. I "got it", but I struggled to understand what it was I was in fact, supposed to get. The acting is superior, and the story works, but I think when it is said and done, the story kinda sucks. The only reason I give it a 3 is because a certain someone did a few good points I had to give in to. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Excelente!!! Muy buena, muy bonita, muy triste. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Una pequeña joya!!!!!! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Really mysterious, with inner logic, inner world. Sad so sad, pictures full of shadows. But then it's not just another depressive story. Gives you an inside to a human's soul Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
