You have the choice of suicide or a living death by religious orthodoxy: the deadening worldview from this stillborn nihilist movie. The young 'heroine' is dead to the world throughout this grayed-out exercise in arty asceticism. Avoid this movie at all cost, or prepare to check your watch frequently until it ends. I say it's spinach, and I say to hell with it. Expand

Like watching paint dry but with the color. A waste of time. Could have been told and shown so much better. The acting was ok, but the lead had little to say.

What a flippin' waste of time. What Oscar? There are hundreds of similar movies filmed in Eastern Europe every year since WWII. Trivial slow motion crap. Sorry guys, gonna watch Machete Kills now to get back to normal ;)

boring, not engaging, extremely over praised. critics are so desperate for something that's not total junk, they go berserk when a film has a cinematic/thoughtful quality. this one certainly had a multi-layered potentially intriguing story.boring, not engaging, extremely over praised. critics are so desperate for something that's not total junk, they go berserk when a film has a cinematic/thoughtful quality. this one certainly had a multi-layered potentially intriguing story. beautiful b+w cinematography, too. but nothing to draw me into the story. take the 80 min and rewatch a bresson, tarkovsky, or dreyer film.

If you want to see a movie that makes 80 minutes feel like an eternity and has zero character development in the titular character, then this might be the movie for you.
