Subtle, thought provoking and simple story

I will try to break up the rating of this movie in 2 parts :

Script : It is one of those kind of movies where the script is too simple and subtle, but very thought provoking. At some times it was way too slow and that is where it seemed losing some points from my rating viewpoint.

Cinematography and acting : It was superb. It is definitely something that depends on taste, but i would highly recommend the screen lovers just because of the cinematography.

If you love movies which are touching and revolve around very subtle emotions go for this movie.
