This movie made me think of the work of Godard, movies that are more about artistic expression and experimentation than about telling a story. There are a lot of elements in the movie, and July's way of expressing her ideas are so personal that I find difficult to say what the main story is about except that it shows the confusion we live our lives, a confusion that is emotional and existential. The characters act and reason unlike regular people (at least unlike people I know) but not so that weirdness takes center stage -as in David Lynch's movies for example. I have seen most of July's work and I would say she definitely has her own voice, and a very distinct one. The movie leaves you puzzling about for days, sign that it has made a dent in your subconscious and I find those are the best enough to want to see it over and over again, like all good movies and at should leave you.
