Lazarev put

Film with a deep spiritual message, layered and complex. A true author's cinema, with rich symbolism derived from Eastern Christianity. It keeps failing your expectations - failing the genre until the ultimate plot twist, in the end. Not quite sure why people keep mentioning Kafka because that atmosphere is there at the beginning, but the story leads you elsewhere, so Kafka is just a first, not the most important reference. (It seems like the most obvious reference for the less educated wiever.) It is slow and meditative, it is intellectually challenging and it is definitely a film for people in search of meaning. I am trying to understand why anyone would rate this film with one star, but then again, I know so many people who hate Tarkovsky or Bergman on the grounds of being "boring" or "slow". Well, not everything is made for your amusement, something is there for other purposes - like asking deeper questions about our existence. Just get over it and keep watching something less demanding. If you like Malick, Wenders, Tarkovsky, or Bergman, this is a film for you. A great piece of cinema, nicely done, and quite rare in today's cultural circumstances. But what really caught my attention was a clear reference to Tornatore's Una pura formalita. This film also has that 90ies author's cinema wibe.

Duel or dialogue, very high intensity for about 20 minutes of the " only" main scene.

The scene that was geniously brought up to by easy, but still deep, and awakening tribulation.

I definitely want to watch it, at least, two more times so that I can enjoy the rest of the art, such as sound and music. Well done!

I am far from expert in cinematography, however the choice of scenery and main acting roles was just purely natural. Bosiljcic and. Dugalic, primerily were born for their roles. Again I am commenting about smoothness and yet very hard work of the whole team to make this happen

Thank you, and. Kudos for the whole team !

Yours truly.
