Depressing, dark, dingy, dismal flick with no real positives. I tried to "like" it, to understand it, to appreciate it, but the task was fruitless -- however serious my efforts. To add to my plight, the film is extremely slow-moving, plods along at an inexcusably doddering, halting pace. Perhaps it makes some sense in its original language, to people in the area, but to this well-travelled mature westerner, it was pointless and frustrating. I gave it 2 stars because the actors seemed intent, and there was no intrusive music. I suppose the best destination for this type of cinematic venture would be an "art playhouse". It is decidedly outside the mainstream of things and beyond my comprehension.
