Four stars for WEIRDNESS. I think this film is about a mental ilness, most likely a schizophrenia?... Watching it makes you tired, very hard to understand indeed!

Slightly obtuse and difficult to follow. Interesting to see a young Tilda Swinton but certainly no her best performance. Was interesting but not a must see.
