CGiii Comment

Beauty, such is this, is too rare in cinema.

Lives of misunderstanding, mistake and, memory...and, the ever-haunting ghosts of betrayal.

Accountability, the differing faces of necessity, ethical diversions, moral meanderings, the benefits of the ill-gotten...it's all here.

Seldom is a character sculpted with such care and skill...Malmros is a true artist.

A sheer accomplishment...a masterpiece.
