Got a chance to see this at the Heartland Film festival. The movie builds some nice suspense early on. The characters are richly developed. The cinematography was beautiful and engaging. You get a real feel for the anguish of Jose and Nina. And the visit with Jose's family is a wonderful picture of a passionate and loving family. The film makers do a nice job weaving several time lines together. All of this is going along well, slowly developing and unfolding, good story, and then out of nowhere it ends abruptly with a confusing and disjointed ending that really doesn't make any sense. I don't get it, everyone spoke of this movie with such high regard, but a story with a lousy ending kind of kills it for me. Too bad, nice film other than the last 10 minutes.
