Gael Bernal, Hani Furstenberg d/ Julia Loktev
Intriguing film which deals with things left unspoken. A young couple are hiking through Georgia the summer before their wedding when an unexpected incident forces them to examine themselves and each other in real terms.
Their devil-may-care lark in a spectacular setting is revealed to be the childlike activity it really is. How much of their warm feelings for each other are also based on illusion?
Intelligent, slow-paced film is courageous in its demands on the audience. We are asked to fill in all the sub-text in the three relationships on screen...just as we would in real life. I found that this technique engaged me more fully than just watching passively as in an ordinary film.
This is a director to watch.
