ManiakJiggy This is How Movies Should Be Made

Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Simon (sinister_bogus) I watched this movie as a kid, way in the past, and i had almost completely forgotten about it. Some part of it did always live with me though, and recently i got a chance to see the film again.Im real glad now that i've watched it again after all those years. It's a gem of a movie, partly a tragedy and a tale of loss and despair; partly a puzzle that demands to be solved; partly a haunting mystery. In the end though the movie turns into a beautiful tale of friendship and salvation.The film cares for it's difficult story, it uses subtlety and does not rush or exaggerate things. The lives and characters portrayed have a lot of richness, a universe of their own, which makes the whole thing very memorable; this would not have worked without the fine acting-performances either, which are an example, and also what makes the film work so well.At times there seems to be no order to the story, and a lot of bizarre things happen on the way, but ultimately the characters you care about find their way to their destination, as if something were guiding them. They were once lost but then found.

skuggyngel This movie moved me to tears simply by it's tempo and the fantastic acting. The story is very hard to grip and mostly focuses on the inner-life of Nora, long shots of her face reacting to the things she sees. Is it in her mind? some kind of generation-passed-down-deja-vu? ore ghosts of the past? The mystery keeps you on the edge thru the whole movie and the end is surprisingly a satisfaction, not revealing to much of the mystery. The movie stays with you a long time after the last note of the fantastic musical score rings out.A movie with a gentle touch, a sense of "fragile". Definitely deserves more confirmation in Swedish film history, this should be in the same level as "en kärlekshistoria" but is not often mentioned.Definitely not an ordinary Swedish youth film.

jmvilaseca A film about the "déjà vu", this strange and impenetrable sensation, and the most secret of all.... These silences, these eternal moments. Like this little, humble vase, that contains a life, a world, an eternity. An occidental film "touching" the Zen...?
