Unusual, and unusually beautiful film, but most definitely not for everyone.

I don't regret seeing it at all. I know some people were about to puke over it, based on their reviews. I enjoyed floating with it - no relation to the final scene...

I would put it in the same category as Lavinia Currier's Passion in the Desert, with images so beautiful and so thick you need a chain saw to cut through them. Is it just the coincidence that both directors are women? If so, I would certainly add Claire Denis to this cohort, with her incredible Beau Travail.

It was way too gloomy for my wife, who could not deny its visual beauty, but it was simply the wrong kind of a mood for her.

Thank you for your recommendation, it was a very gratifying experience, with memories, that are bound to prove lasting.
