CGiii Comment

It's worth watching just for the house!

However...this has just about every human emotion crammed into a 30 minute soundscape.

A stunning piece of work!

The(ir) Blurb...

A young woman comes to a remote island to get away from it all, taking refuge at a modern studio utopia. All she needs is restorative peace and quiet, but her stay is jarringly interrupted by an intruder: an artist whose acoustic installation disturbs everything that the starkly empty house has to offer. The tension between the two women rises and the motionless calm gives way to growing frustration and anger. Emerging from the wilds of nature, the house becomes the third character of the story – a labyrinth in which contrasting personalities meet and differing lifestyles and expectations clash.

Trough mistery, etorism and irony, a powerful and sinous movie, publicly praised by Nicolas Winding Refn.
