Story is broken. Luckily, it's beautifully shot, so at least you could linger on the images. You will be waiting and praying to get a sense of the story, which starts as a quest for the truth, a love story, and then predictibly ends up in a blurry mess. You won't get it. I laughed out loud finding out that the lead actress got awarded as best actress in a leading role in Romania for this part. What a joke ?

We loved this film. The photography is beautiful. The acting is understated but very convincing. It is slow, and a lot of Hollywood/American film lovers will not like that.

But then we tend not to like American films for their brashness and sugary sentimentality.

Not for all audiences for sure. This topic has already been told before, about solitary, woods, few characters and their deep study, few dialogues and many things about which you have to think after the watching. This one makes no exception to the rule, though many holes or things that remain to be explained. The one that I think about is how the hunter finds out who raped the woman, and is he actually the true rapist? Or maybe i have lost something during the film. Anyway, the settings are terrific, besides the violin score.
