Good
It's refreshing to see Alex Descas in a leading role or in anything else for that matter. The story is quite understated but still engaging and the characters in general work well together. Although it felt kinda long, it wasn't painful. I thought the ending was a little bit odd and seemed quite unnecessary - I suppose I didn't really understand it and there didn't seem to be any real associated clues along the way to warrant such an ending. Anyhow, not a bad film.
