CGiii Comment

The certainly delivers an unexpected punch.

Credit must go to Håkon Liu - who delivers a masterclass in restrain.

The actors are controlled - there could have been much hysteria which would have destroyed the fragile atmosphere.

And...what is so good about this film - its fragility.

Beautifully done.
