CGiii Comment

Nothing quite like promoting the lesbian cliché...of the rapid onset relationship!

It's a tad self-indulgent...and, way too long to maintain any sliver of interest going through to the end.

As for the art...well, when 'art' defaces the landscape...it simply becomes litter!

The(ir) Blurb...

Astrid, a young artist, has turned her back towards the world and in a deserted landscape she works on a piece of land-art. Days pass and her loneliness becomes stifling, until one day she meets the eccentric geologist Emily. Quickly they form a deep connection. Far away from the real world, in a wild and beautiful landscape, they can make love, dream and philosophize carelessly; their lives seem temporarily idyllic.
