The best-looking bad movie in years.

The movie's bold visual and psychological patterns, as well as its heavy immersion in the natural world, imbue Malli's journey with a folktale quality.

Chicago Sun-Times by Roger Ebert
If you have ever wondered what kind of person volunteers to become a human bomb, and what they think about in the days before their death, this film wonders, too.

Its overall effect is haunting, hypnotic and moving in a profound and unexpected way.
