5/10
Not as bad as they make it seem

Warning: Spoilers
This is the middle of road movie that should have been made - the director/editor has cut shots in such a way that the mood of the scene fits with the cuts that are made.

The story does need tweaking abit - the reality of Christopher's immediately knowing his daughter's fiancé as his ex-lover from a former life is not built up in anyway....a scene with the "psychic" made reference to is the only lead in to the whole background story - that was lacking.

mentioning PARAGRAPH 175 of the German penal code was more of a text book reading than an explanation of what really took place during the Holocaust - not just to the Jewish Generation - but to the Gay (Jew and non-Jew) men and woman that lived during the Nazi regime.

While the acting is raw - it has a tinge of honesty behind it - when "Christopher" is talking about his current life - he stares blindly ahead as if to really recall the life he has been through, this time around.

While not the most perfect movie on the block, it is worth seeing just to say that you have seen it on DVD. I do recommend that you watch all of the short films that are included on the DVD - they give you some more insight into the mind of the writer/producer/director - what an interesting world he lives in.

Edgy and Raw is the talent he exposes and uses to his own means - which is a mediocre film that makes you think that love could span the ages and cross time to let you be with the once true love of your life.
