Indirectly by coming in contact with death people a young man step by step becomes born again into a new life.
This touching story brings the hopeful message, that people can change their lives for the better even after difficult times or violent events in the past.
With beautiful symbols and a classic style the director succeeds in building the forthcoming of the characters while avoiding every touch of melodrama.
The film also received the Emeric Pressburger Award, the main award of the festival, and the FIPRESCI Award of the International Film Critics Association.
