...exciting, quietly volatile stuff that digs refreshingly deep into the fears of the coming-of-age genre.

Una història que hauria pogut ser força interessant si no hagués estat així tan lenta, plena de silenci, un simbolisme que mai no s'acaba d'entendre. Una història a mig camí entre el suspense i el drama..
