An amazing film if you are into this genre. Not at all what you would expect. The acting is superb and the directing is wonderful. The scenery is as hauntingly beautiful as the tragic love story that is unveiled. It is definitely not for everyone and there are elements that might repulse some people, but it is a wonderful metaphor for our modern world and has so many points of discussion. I have used it in multiple classes as a teaching tool for immigration, colonialism, trauma, identity, and folklore.
