CGiii Comment

There is no doubt that this is an intelligent film...and, beautifully shot.

Don't expect a pleasant walk in the park, the view may be a vista to behold...but, the reality will hit you in the face without the possibility of resolution - just like life - no finite conclusion, sometimes no explanation.

Podeswa creates this philosophy - obviously, he will alienate some of his audience - the others will simply walk away thinking and they will keep on thinking.

A fine film indeed.


Trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

Interconnected stories examine situations involving the five senses. Touch is represented by a massage therapist who is treating a woman, while her daughter accidentally loses the woman's pre-school daughter in the park. The older daughter meets a voyeur (vision), a professional house-cleaner has an acute sense of smell, a cake maker has lost her sense of taste, and an older man is losing his hearing.
