Not-so-interesting film about not-so-interesting people, but technically well done
Though technically well done and with believable actors, I had expected much more after reading the announcement for the Rotterdam filmfestival 2011. I can imagine that it is not easy to make an interesting film about not-so-interesting people, but this attempt fails and produces an even-so not-so-interesting result.
It is all about different stories of different people, initially without any connection with each other. The story lines get intermixed after a while, but I found it a bit haphazard and artificial. I also got stuck with a few loose ends, like what happened with the "lost" prisoner at the end.
Don't get me wrong after reading the above: I was not bored most of the time, with the exception that the respective stories took some time to really take off. It may let the viewer confused how it all ties together. For example, there is a time span of almost an hour between the ultra short prison scene in the beginning, and the 2nd half of the film where the prison turns into the main location.
