I'm not sure I like it that much. The filmmakers seem to have put most of the work into creating something that is mysterious and open to interpretation that so far I've been unable to discern what the ideas are, if there are any.

There are so many questions without answers that it seems mostly insubstantial. I was going to put some of the questions, but I realize they would give away too many plot points - which brings me to the perception that there is plot but the main character remains a kind of cipher.


Some movies like this work for me, like the Tree of Life, which is so evocative of childhood, or Hide Your Smiling Faces. Also Heartstone, which has a clear enough story and motivations, but not that much action, and lots of atmosphere and furtive glances and yearning.
