much ambition, little naturalness, 27 September 2000
5/10
Author: (damrosch@web.de) from Hamburg, Germany

a slight disappointing psychological drama, light minded and heavy going. respectable acting and fine cinematography are not enough to cover the plot weakness and banal dialogues. too much ambition, too little naturalness.
