Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
The atmosphere is mythic and pervasive. The imagery, of night and nature and dancing flames, seems ripped from liner notes. Even the title sounds like something you might see scrawled across a record sleeve in Gothic typeface.
Landscapes and lyric conundrums distinguish the first two-thirds of this find-your-own-meaning artflick, which unfurls like some stranger's life you're half reliving.
For some this will feel like an arthouse endurance test, but it's shot with real beauty.
An art film that tries but doesn't quite manage to entrance the viewer.
