Featured review
an excellent, quiet film....a nice change of pace
which is exactly what this film is supposed to be. Boring? Not a chance, unless of course you're a fan of what film has unfortunately become; chaotic cross cuts of meaningless images.
The soundtrack, the acting, the direction and scenery all add to this beautiful, intimate story about two friends trying to find solace in this chaos we call life.
Too many films today think high powered story lines, which generally equal meaningless dialogue make for an interesting film, which couldn't be farther from the truth.
It's about time we let film be film by allowing the images to tell the story.
Don't miss it. This is a nice, rare gem.
