Preparativos para estar juntos un periodo de tiempo desconocido

A wonderful movie. In a time of great absence of humanity and love in culture and all around us with mobile phones and thousands of unnecessary information bombarding us every day, this masterpiece restores my hope for salvation and the victory of beauty and kindness. In the daily madness and artificial speed imposed on me and the work I do as a doctor, this film really touched me deeply. Life is most beautiful where you love and are loved, and no material prosperity can replace that. Great actors, direction and story as well as beautiful Budapest! The deepest gift for the entire film crew. Thank you very much. Greetings from Belgrade.

Nothing about the events portrayed in this movie was believable and the ending was just plain silly, but it had a steady, chill vibe and the lead actress had a very captivating screen presence.

Recommended if you just want to relax for 90 mins, but don't expect anything deep.

This film does a fairly good job at drawing a moody, atmospheric european cinema not unlike Krzysztof Kieslowsk's works. The streets and bridges of Budapest as the story's setting, the score, the camera work and direction all become together to enchant us as viewers in a somewhat magical mystery-romance piece.

The storyline and the narrative though, is when the film fails to keep up with those virtues. The main character falls in love with a man who does not appear to recognise the face of the former and thus the mystery commences with a series of stalkings, conversations and events which lead to the upfilting of the mystery. But when that uplifting happens, it's just not merely interesting or impactful to leave its mark. The film could have definitely been much stronger had it had a deeper, more detailed and structured script.

Thus is a superbly executed and beautifully acted psychological mystery involving a lonely Hungarian doctor and her relocation from the USA back to Hungary to follow through on a new romance. There are immediate complications and one quickly wonders if she has imagined the whole affair due to mental illness. The two leads deliver wonderfully understated performances and there are some erotic set pieces that are clever in conception and playful in their choreography. I was spellbound throughout the film and felt great empathy for the lead character and her anguished search for a resolution to the mystery at the heart of events.

This movie flows like a big river. If you can just enjoy the slow flow, the soft cinematography, the imperfect buildings, the very minimalistic acting, you will have a good time.

The story is meant to be very simple, this is all about the mood it tries to convey.
