Somewhat of a slow burn, beautiful cinematography. A few shots I wanted as art! The actors were fantastic. More of a drama/haunt
Trauma film. Loved it and felt it.
Well done, ending could have been a bit more explicit but would definitely recommend!
A film about despair, suicide, guilt, trauma, loss, homophobia, jealously, love, imaginary friends to get us through tough times, basically a film about life. And the old guy is Gunnar looking back at himself??
Only 4 skulls cause I personally don’t like the ending,but it’s a good watch, enjoy;)
