Poison - Eine Liebesgeschichte

This is a simple story. Two people were split apart by something that happened ten years ago and meet again unexpectedly. The acting is powerful as the two revisit their shared past and the back story gradually emerges. Also the filming is very atmospheric with long silences and realistic background sounds of the setting where it all takes place. The interest is in how the two characters interact after ten years apart and how they have changed, or not, in that time. Don't expect much of a story though, and in the end I personally found the lack of character development or any changed outcome from their meeting somewhat disappointing.
