This movie just left me dizzy for two days after seeing it - I did not know how to really feel about it or its morale (if there was indeed any), I could not pinpoint what touched be so strongly, all I can say that this movie had really heavy impact on me. There is something incredibly charming about the main characters and their extreme circumstances is what gives the film the force to punch through all your shells and find the right strings of your soul to play on.
Frankly, this movie actually has several major weak points - especially the script is full of so many gaping holes and the scenes fit together just barely for the plot to roughly work on the global scale. But this is the kind of movie where you just don't really care how believable the story is as long as you can follow it through: you just want to embrace yourself in the massively dark atmosphere built by excellent visuals and unforgettable music. I guess the only superlative left to describe the acting of the two main actresses is "awesome"...
This movie makes for a very dark watch, with few quite violent scenes - but if you think you can handle it, be sure to go for it if you get your hands on it. Normally, with so problematic script I wouldn't give a movie more than 6/10, but here the rest works together so well that I can't make myself to give less than 9.
