I saw this film at the Montreal Film Festival. I love Greenaway, I like Andriessen's music and the festival put me in the right mood to see something experimental. Given all that, it was quite good. But it was also s-l-o-w, sometimes pointless and only after I read the plot summary here, I begin to understand what the story was meant to be about. But hey, if you like (modern) opera, beautiful Greenaway-type scenes and such, don't miss out on this one!
