🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film meticulously dissects the fine line between sanctuary and obsession, mentorship and possession. Its restrained, observational style builds an unsettling tension from mundane details and unspoken truths.
What lingers after the final frame is a profound unease about the shadows that can lurk behind good intentions. It's a challenging, deliberately paced work that refuses to offer simple catharsis. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Ulrich Seidl
