    A very sensitive film
    As the title reveals itself, this is a purely symbolic film about the difficulty of human relationships. The scars that an inevitable separation leaves - directly pass on to the next person, creating a circle of pain but also of healing.

    With great aesthetic references to René Magritte and to French painters who intensively use the colours red and blue, the camera follows the pair of the protagonists closely. There are some beautiful editing techniques. The director has sensitively developed the subject and plays along with some nice visual effects.

    Apart from the fact that the film is mostly dark, I feel that the end of it ties up everything in a satisfactory way, leaving you with a hopeful meaning.
