Louise by the Shore

The movie is slow but that's not the problem, it's calm and peaceful, all in all a relaxing experience. Not everything needs to be action-packed but there has to be a point in there somewhere, a lesson, a message. An old lady adjusts to life in solitude, seemingly forgotten by her family. She can't remeber them either apparently. Halfway through the movie starts delving into her past and here I thought we were getting somewhere, there was something above the starter story of life in a makeshift cabin. And then a year has passed, people returned to the beach and she remains there? They don't mind her and she doesn't mind them. Her past doesn't matter, nothing matters, we're living like this now.

Small pet-peeve ~ she HAS a full functioning home already and entire small beachside town at her disposal. She's not deserted on an island where survival is extremely hard. There is something in her acceptance of solitude and her old age (even if there are discarded eyeglasses, magazines and painting kits on this beach when she convinietly needs them) but that's about it. Also we never learn why nobody came. Does she even have a family?

The ending left me very confused and tad dissappointed making this whole viewing experience useless. The dog is cute.
