Reception

edit

The film was presented as follows, "(it) has a contemporary setting, and tells of the anguish of intellectuals who remained silent during a series of recent crises. The plot develops into an existential murder thriller, but the chaos of unsettled lives is coralled by Jansco's unique film language (his weaving camera, long shots and long takes now complemented by the use of multiple video images) which lends the timelessness of classicism to all it touches."[2]
