I saw this movie in my movie class on university first and it took me some time to get into it. If you seen some bill viola stuff already you for sure know that it is done on video and that it probably is moving quite slow. Also it is mostly not really narrative. But after some time, when i was focusing on the way the movie was moving forward, how it came from one scene to the next it became really enjoyable. It was a constant searching for the connections to the previous scenes and often pretty funny to find out where it is, as bill viola releases the beginning confusion after a cut not immediately but after some time in a often unexpected way. In a way it was like listening to classic music trying to figure out, were and in what form the motive would appear again and how it was transformed. The whole thing is done really smart, interesting for the eye and and in a way also emotional and sometimes really funny. So take some time, search for the connections and enjoy the birds eyes.
