CGiii Comment

Ask yourself: do you want to sit through 100 minutes of interminable depression?

If the answer is yes...watch this...and then seek professional advice immediately afterwards.

Crying over Virginia Woolf and an ex-lover has never been so ponderous.

Cheerless, dull and excruciatingly monotonous.

The(ir) Blurb...

Julia is a 35-year-old English Literature teacher struggling with depression as she tries to get her life back together again after her long, intense love affair with Antonia. Feeling totally abandoned after she and her enigmatic girlfriend broke up, Julia is thrown into a desperate, painful process. Her life and her values have been tinged with unbearable melancholy and her life's measure seems reduced to out-of-focus fragments of her memories. Her inner turmoil and conflicts hamper a process now made necessary - that of readapting to her new life. It is impossible for her to disguise her pain when she attempts to narrate emotions.
