A tragedy that is incomprehensible and almost impossible to see through to the end. The director evokes the atmosphere of a village through uninterrupted shots of intercourse and expresses a feeling of solitude by showing the viewpoint of a slaughtered goat getting cooked. The story can be summed up in a single sentence, and even the redeeming ending sails miles past me.
