Reception
The film's technical cinematography was praised, but the confusing structure was described as cold and emotionless.[3][4][5][6][7][7][8] According to the Toronto International Film Festival, the film "is an intoxicating cinematic puzzle that intertwines the lives of three seemingly unconnected characters."[9]
gollark: I too want vast swathes of land to be covered in generators which will not even work half the time because of "night" and "poor weather", which are hilariously energy-expensive to produce in the first place, and which will break after 40 years.
gollark: I mean, in a sense, maybe it is.
gollark: Also, anticentrism seems to imply you'd prefer, say, an extreme ideology in the opposite direction to yours over a generic middling centrist one, which is... odd?
gollark: What do you prefer then, "komrad kit"?
gollark: Anticentrism is only good ironically.
