About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you’re in the mood for a patient, melancholic mystery about memory and time, with a film-within-a-film angle, closer in spirit to Roma than a fast thriller; Not for you if you need quick answers or constant action.
Pros: reflective mystery; strong performances; rich atmosphere | Cons: very long runtime; slow, talky pacing; inconclusive feel
