Even with subs it's an incomprehensible art house movie; follows the rulebook religiously - even to being filmed in black and white. Basically, just a nonsense movie made by a pseudo intellectual director who believes he much more clever than he really is. Don't bother unless you're tired and need something interminably boring to send you to sleep - you'll be fine because even the dialogue is quite hushed and spoken in hushed tones and whispers. lol!

I'm not going through the review list stage by stage - there's no point. I gave the actors 2.5 because they did the best they could with a dire script. I wouldn't even watch this once if you can avoid it, so it has ZERO rewatch value but the review won't let me do that, so 1 it is. I can't believe how bad this was to be honest. It wasn't even one of the 'so bad it was good'....it was just TERRIBLE.

The plot had a LOT of promise and could've been something really thought provoking - sadly the director had other ideas.
