Well it is good looking for sure, but it is also god damn tedious and totally pointless.

Ambient sound of nature.. waves, breeze, or silence. And this is a great story to tell. many directors told this pl...( read more)

A hushed, emotionally intense study of a crumbling relationship and the existential gloom and doom that come with it, Climates is an old-school art pic full review
