This doesn't really seem like 'slow cinema' to me. A lot of stuff actually happens in this film, in terms of times and places. There are some long shots and sequences, but generally, it kept moving the narrative along until the end.I thought slow cinema would be something more like Jon Jost's 'Bowman Lake,' which is mostly just 2½ hours of a lake, and genuinely feels slow.
How did they evolve…to this??
