    It wasn't boring, but I didn't have any profound feelings other than complete fucking misery either. 8 years 1 month ago

    I read several rave reviews of this movie along the lines of "it brings these forgotten people to life", but without narration, interviews, or much dialogue, the footage wasn't much more enlightening (or involving) than passing the individuals on the street would have been. Lovely images, observed at numbing length... the sort of movie that makes you ask, "What does the director want me to think or feel about the third minute of Vanda coughing that I didn't already think during the previous minutes?" 8 years 5 months ago
