What a powerful movie!, 26 September 2000
10/10
Author: sleepsev (bearania@yahoo.com) from Bangkok, Thailand

For me, this is a very powerful movie. I feel like I was not seeing a movie, but seeing something greater, stronger, and more powerful than "movie". I like every scene in this film. I feel I couldn't breathe when I saw it. It really fascinated and captivated me from the beginning until the end. The acting is also very good. Some actors in this film give the feeling like they were not acting, but "being" their characters. Elina Lowensohn is very great. Her eyes speak much louder and clearer than her words. The lighting, the movement of the camera, the raw feelings expressed from this movie made me feel as if I was not in a cinema, but in the story with all these characters. Hardly a movie can touch or move me this strongly! The joke about the stranded one is a good comment on human nature. The road scenes are hauntingly beautiful. Personally, I think every scene in this movie is indeed "emotionally" beautiful.
