..to review this.
I like to discover random "indie" or "low budget", "small productions" kind of movies all the time, so I saw my fare share.
This one, I stumbled upon randomly too, without knowing anything about it.
It peaked my interest because it takes place in Switzerland. Therefore, as I expected, the imagery and landscape this all takes place is visually stunning and the director and cinematography department made some beautiful stylistic choices and experimented quite a bit with different artistic shots. The use of the scenery and surroundings was done quite well in this movie. Unfortunately that is where my praise mostly ends. The film lacks a compelling story and emotional depth, leaving it feeling hollow and unengaging. The premise had potential, but the execution felt underwhelming. So while the atmosphere and mood were quite well crafted (mostly carried by the cinematography), it isn't enough to make up for the film's lack of substance. The actors did well, acting was overall good. A decent watch for the visuals, but not a good watch if you care about a strong storyline. The 5 stars are for the visuals and cast.
