User Reviews

the past and beyond

...well; first, I want to say that I read the critics and these guys seems that cannot understand a film that is not 2+2=4; if you know what I am saying.

-Is about personal demons regarding your own mind, the society and the cultural environment where you have been raised. Not "All" is for all and despite your good intentions, sometimes is not possible to take apart the past and the loneliness seems a too long punishment.

Acting is very good by most. Camera work for my taste is too handy and shaky. Color palette is correct for the mood but luck of light overall.
