I won't lie, I can't comprehend this movie after one watch. So this review will only be for that stuff my eyes saw and read. How the brain handled it all I can't say for sure, I think it's still lost in time and space. I think what confused me most was the dialogue. Normally I guess books, poems, stories etc. are kinda translated to the screen. Sometimes there are instances where it is exactly copied from the source material, but this makes it often very hard to understand. This sends me immediately back to school, where I had to work for my understanding. With all the movies I am watching, I love it when I come across a movie like that again. Where I have to go much deeper into the material to at least get a small bit of clarity. This means it will stick for me for a couple of days, weeks or months. Sometimes even forever.
But all the stuff I did not understand beside, this movie is still a wonderful journey. The transition between scenes are mesmerizing and the whole atmosphere is abstract, dreamy and poetic. It's not really like watching a movie, more like a theater piece. So while not really understanding what was happening, it was nice to just give into it and follow Józef through his past and let the experience get a hold of you.
It takes a lot of patience to find the right words in this confusion. You can do it by grammatical analysis of sentences and tenses. I am, he is, she is... You are, we are! They are...
