This film desperately tries to be deep but ends up being utterly superficial. Beautiful actors, Nick Drake soundtrack and excellent cinematography can't hide the fact that this is a confused and amateurish story without a message. The main problem is the script: we never get to know the characters, we don't understand what motivates them. There is no real "story" to follow, no beginning and no end. Time after time the filmmakers seem to forget the main characters/story line and far to much time is spent on subplots and side characters that don't interest us, since they haven't been introduced earlier in the film. The actors are OK but the script just doesn't give them anything substantial to work with.
