This movie makes little sense. There is sparse dialogue, and absolutely no context of background that tells you anythings about the characters. One can get the gist of the story, but for the most p art, the scenes just seem disconnected from one another, and the dialogue appears to be heavily improvised. The movies has neither a satisfactory beginning, and even more unfulfilling end. It's as if the events just unfold, but without any purpose to their occurrence. The movie is just totally pointless and utterly bleak, pretty much like the surrounding landscape. One has to wonder why money is wasted to produce useless films like this!
