For English speaking viewers, I suggest you first do yourself a favor and watch Zift (by the same writer) which has English subtitles. Then if you find it cool, different, and compelling, you will also love this film. Shot beautifully in scope on color stock with some very original framing (pay close attention to the rooftop scene) and somehow processed to look like 80's color tones and grain.
Great care seems to have been taken in crafting every little aspect of this film, from the reel to reel tape recorders to the main character staring mesmerized into the open gate of his 16mm Bolex camera, you get drawn into a world that is halfway between a Graham Green novel and the inside of the main character's head which appears to have an almost Terry Gilliam quality. If you are a film lover you will definitely appreciate the references that other people will miss, but even if you are not the story will drag you in.
The main actor seems to be somewhat unknown but keep a lookout for him because after this I can predict he gets a lot more work.
