Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film 11/11/2016
3.5/5
Sound design is repeatedly used to unsettle both its characters and us as the action treads a line between deadpan realism and a absurdist landscape in which the protagonist seems to be having the most downbeat of existential crises. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

05/10/2015 A very pleasant but in the end not convincing mystery and technic-critical comedy, set in Berlin with excellent scenes, and then in the Czech woods of the directors homeland. It starts excellent, but in the end it falls apart with too many repetitious locations and cuts, less comedy and the David Lynch like techno mystery is not convincingly resolved. Could be a budget problem also. See more Read all reviews
