Thank God for non-Hollywood movies but this is one of the most pretentious, boring movies I have seen in many decades. The acting is, in fact, truly wonderful, notably the poker face of Pharaon who could be a masked actor in an ancient Greek play. How he and the other main characters kept from breaking out into laughter I don't know. The clownish and totally inept police force and its non-investigation of the murder (no explanation at all of how they solved it) provides a nice comic relief to the serio-pathetic protagonists as they try to bear up under it all -- it's all just too much -- how can we take another day of it -- LIFE -- or is it just being human -- is more than we poor humans can bear. Crap! I can just hear Pauline Kael's review..."I lost it (faith in movies) at this movie."
Sorry but it was just too much pseudo-artistic overly-understated heavy meaning for this human movie fan.
