Marina finds herself unexpectedly smitten with Pablo, and allows the infatuation to draw her away from home and on a lengthy road trip with the belletrist. A great deal of time passes wordlessly, but Marina and Pablo eventually have an encounter at a local bar (while en route) that provides a sudden and most unexpected shock. Meanwhile, numerous unresolved emotions lurk beneath the surface of the couple's experience together. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Steve Rhodes, Internet Reviews
As his car twists and turns through one gorgeous forest after another and lush opera music plays in the background, I found myself lulled into a dreamy and tranquil state.
