Interesting and Beautiful

I found both the cinematography and the story to be engaging and visually stunning. The mystery, the characters, and the setting all kept me hooked and wanting to learn more.

The film does feel a bit long, and I think the middle section could have benefited from some tightening. Still, I am happy I watched the film and look forward to more from this director.
