I totally understand why others find this film so powerful and moving. Unfortunately, it doesn't do the same for me. 7 years 2 months ago -

I can't say I loved this film, but I can't say I disliked it either... It's difficult to categorize. It's difficult to put in a box. Very unique film. Unlike anything I've ever seen. Very lyrical and poetic. I would call it artwork. 8 years ago
