Poignant and utterly absorbing, the film slowly captivates you. We are drawn into the lives of people devastated by tragedy and are keen to see them cope with their pain, to find absolution.
Slow yet suspenseful and beautifully shot in colour - later treated with a sepia filter - you should be not be put off by the running time. Not a moment is wasted in this overview of tragedy,hope and, everything willing, contentment.
Well worth a rental.
