This is a very compelling piece of work. A friend was involved with the film and recommended I try it out, I probably wouldn't have stumbled upon it otherwise. The plot is slow but intentional, and I found it to be incredibly refreshing and illuminating. The story revolves around three individuals seeking spiritual understanding, the dialogue is heavy and the cinematography is moody and yet soft. It definitely requires a certain cinematic palette as the pace of the film and the themes it discusses are slow moving and complex, but as an independent film enthusiast, I am extremely heartened to see that cinema can still provoke, ponder and question existence in such a gritty, thoughtful manner.
