Enjoyed this far more than I expected. The plot feels both incredibly simple and deeply symbolic. So much so it leaves you pondering it's meaning long after the credits roll.
What's better - to lead a simple but honest, good life or be remembered for something deeper and more far reaching - and indeed why should there be a choice between the two?
The love for the animals gives the characters a sweet charm and innocence, and they're all still likeable despite strangeness and flaws.
It is strange, at times funny, poignant, sweet, and most certainly watchable. Great acting all round and a breath of fresh air.
