This film is clearly the works of a great filmmaker, or a boldly visionary one atleast. Albeit a few obvious time line errors, the films thought provoking and mise-en-scène view of the World more than makes up for its mistakes. Without giving much away, the films ending is a bit manipulative, it sort of barricades from the inevitable tragedy that lies within the films social anatomy. If one's going to make a film with cinematic reference to Bresson, Kiarostami, and Tarr. A better framework would have proved otherwise.
