Repression

It's a nicely constructed and well acted film but I found it rather confusing and implausible in the end.

Wouldn't watch it again but not a stinker by any means.

Like a record of psyciatric inuendos, where the plot and story is so complexed that it hypnotized the grumpy old man into somnolentia, its like a film emerging from a film of anotherfilm about a woman and her seriuous patient case, or was she the case herself, and the whole production goes from dark grey cold , wet and mysterious a time that even i could analyze the problem, then the visionaries become farther and darker in a dreamlike nightmare where dead ressurects and and the complexity of the story turned into a catnap for me, then when you think the flick is over it spins of again, now in a whitish world, and you may now get a glimpse of whos the real fanasizer in this story is...

my god, this dug deep into my stemcells, its not a fun ride, rather a mysterious riddle of a drawing board game its a irrational drama en masse', the filming and soundwork are good, the actors play well, but the plotspeed are slow, and playtime a bit to long for an adhd'ish perpredemented tinnitusious grumpy old man, that wont tell you to shade away from this , its just to complex for a tired mind, so be awake and ready when viewing this one.

Many weak points, like the riciculous opening scene, and the slow pace, but overall an entertaining movie. The pace helps to create a nice atmosphere. Good acting, especially by Elijah Wolf and Thekla Reuten. There's all sorts of philosphy in this movie, like Schrödinger's cat, free will, and hints about parallel universes. Very interesting if you've never heard of it. But it's obviously used to distract the viewer from what's really going on.

Slow movie. Gothic thriller that didn't work for me. Ending is interesting but too long getting there. Extra point as I work in Aberdeen and had a great time guessing the locations (got most of them right). Segments stitched together all over the place eg you don't go up Deeside to get to Portsoy from Aberdeen but hey, that's movie magic. "Wet and gloomy" is near the mark though, ha ha.

A psychiatrist (Reuten) leaves the US after a personal tragedy and starts again in Aberdeen where one of her patients, a young boy, says he can decide the future as shown in his many manic drawings.

This starts as a quite enjoyable thriller - is the boy shaping Reuten's future or merely foretelling it. About three quarters of the way through is shifts gears significantly resulting in a more detailed and lofty explanation of what has happened. This solution is well handled, but with all such twists and changes in plot, it really comes down to whether you are prepared to take that leap or not. On the whole, for me, I think, despite its pretentions, it was just about acceptable, I just felt the last quarter was a little bit hurried although frankly I'm still not 100% sure I've bought into it this. Interesting though.
