This short movie is so poetic that it will take your breath away. The visual beauty is truly a work of art in which each scene stands on its own. The movie is about the heroine's quest for "true love." and begins with the heroine deeply in love with a handsome young man who she romanticizes as her prince charming. Later he breaks up with her and the viewer experiences her emotional crisis and her path through the crisis to a time where she is a stronger self-assured women for the experience. While the "story" is not new, the way it is told is fresh. These is very little dialog and what there is comes from the heroine talking directly into the camera explaining her thoughts. Throughout the movie, we hear various people talking about their romantic experiences. Some of it is very humorous, some sad and some banal; but, the real joy is to hear the heroine's voice who more often than not recites original poems that are beautiful and gripping. Through the images and poetry (and fantastic soundtrack), the viewer literally gets to experience what the heroine herself experiences. I saw this movie at a festival and hope it will be shown on HBO or someplace like that or otherwise become available because it is an experience you will not forget.
