Here – 3

This Belgian film spelled its title with a backward “r,” but it could just as well have been called “Where,” or even “Why?” The film festival programmer previewed it as “a film about soup, moss and love.” If he had added rain, a car in a repair shop and a Chinese diner he would have covered everything. Oh, and a vacation that never happened. The camera seemed stuck, the story was implausible–especially the bit about the soup, but the love affair was not far behind. There was a nice punch line at the end, but it didn’t make up for the preceding 80 minutes I’d waited in vain for something to happen. A rave reviewer called it “miraculously weightless.” I agree.
