"This bold project illustrates how co-producing can allow an immensely gifted filmmaker to enter different territory, just as the film itself transports the audience to an alien world. Without signposts or hand-holding, viewers are challenged to use all their senses in order to navigate this foreign land. The filmmaker's sensory approach to cinema also poses a challenge to us critics; we've been struggling to find words that do justice to a film that ultimately can only be experienced."
