    Quite flat, leaves no after-taste
    I would recommend to watch this movie only if you like colours and atmospheric scenes (you will understand what I mean after watching the movie). I would also note that temperature of used colours is somewhat i put +5, the script, actors play, music, idea, etc, does not worth a penny. But anyway Elena is luminously beautiful.

    A few more words about the idea. First it is not clearly explained within the movie, but is so much obvious that you can not really understand whether it is really the whole point of the movie or not. The movie itself does make you think of something, it doesn't even make you feel something while you watch it. So decide, its your choice.
