I saw it in a friends house in Russia but would love to see it on the big screen, it makes a strange but good mix of US indie movie and Scandinavian character study stage play. Those who have seen American plays and Scandinavia plays in NYC fringe know the difference. Brilliant dialogue, but it needs a 2nd viewing to get the whole idea and where the director is going. The action takes place in two or three rooms and a boat and it gets more and more interesting because you know someone is lying but you don't know why, thou you know it's most likely all in Laura's head. I wont give anything away in case you see it. The actors do their job OK but the local sheriff guy is a very very good actor. Low budget writing at its best.

At least I would give the director credit for trying to do something different from all the predictable films coming out every week. I saw it on TV (DVD), but I think the movies like this need the big screen because it brings the characters even closer to you. Dalle is good, with hardly dialogue, its not comfortable to watch the long clumsy sex scene which is the intention of the film, to make you feel a bit sick sometimes. So the director is doing something right. The problem is that I am not convinced that he knows what people feel when they have a life threatening illness or want to die for some reason. Why talk about it in a movie when you don't have anything knew to say about it. But for all movie nerds it is worth seeing.
