Agnieska Vosloo is interested in the complex connections between events and people. How people react to extraordinary events. The film is not so much about a story as it is about illustrating how the characters cope with their post-apocalyptic world and the peeling away of social convention and morality.
Open up your eyes and mind to the world that is created here, leave behind expectations of how it should function or how the plot should advance. You will be richly rewarded. The director's painted a vivid and imaginative world. The sets and costumes are gorgeous, but the true beauty lies in the characters and their lives and the bizarre, menacing, original, beautiful fantasy created by an remarkably talented director.
I freely admit that the film will probably not be to everyone's taste, and if pushed, I might even accept that's its not perfect. But no-one can deny that Pate is breathtaking, brave, and audacious film-making.
