About
You may enjoy this if you like offbeat, self-aware relationship stories with a retro European mood, somewhere between Pecker and XX/XY; Not for you if you want a straightforward plot or instantly likable characters.
Pros: playful movie-within-movie; vivid 1960s atmosphere; funny and thoughtful | Cons: uneven pacing; artsy side feels pretentious; characters can feel distant
