Is it possible to think of nothing? The absence of expression on Fausto's face as he stands in front of his machine in the factory tells us that it is. When Ivan asks him the same thing it turns out that a thought has crept into his head: an extreme thought, dark, beyond human standards. It is this violent thought that is the origin of the encounter between Fausto and Ivan. In a remote valley eaten away by industrial towns, they are confronted with the impossibility of escape from their everyday existence.

Amber Wilkinson Times (UK) There is no doubting the darkness of the nihilism at work, but somehow Sossai finds ways to connect us to the bleak loneliness and disaffection that is driving Fausto and Ivan's desires while offsetting these emotions with warmer encounters. Rated: 3.5/5 Dec 10, 2021 Full Review Wendy Ide Screen International It's a film which threatens to explore the unspeakable and finds, instead, something oddly life-affirming.
