This has a novel concept that feels reasonably well executed. Certainly, the stylization and aesthetic is top notch, at least. I think their not really talking about the significance or the piece beyond larger themes does make it difficult to connect with, and it is Quite a slow burn, but it's captivating in its own way. I'm sure if I was a fan of Bruegel and had more context, it would have resonated with me more strongly.
There isn't that much acting to speak of, but what was there of it, was serviceable and not altogether spectacular. It did make me want to read Tóibín's Testaments of Mary again; never a bad thing.
