There is slow building sense of drama throughout, but it is not immediately apparent.
Writing
Comments on Writing
The writing is good but needed to find a greater economy and structure, the plot is interesting and the dialogue is believable. The writing was measured and melodic, and helped to deliver the peaceful narrative.

The production values are very attractive.
Pacing / Structure
Comments on Production Value
The pacing is quite slow and sometimes beautifully slow, but never the less this film may benefit from it being slightly quicker and economical.
Sound/Music
Thoughts on the beginning
Superbly hooked at the beginning. The quick cutting and progression of the narrative was engaging. The film looks beautiful, we are introduced to the characters well and you give the audience a sense of drama. After the first few sequences the pacing then drops off.
Thoughts on the middle
The middle of this film shows some very interesting elements of the local culture and experiences which the protagonist has become involved with. It demonstrates that the character is growing and developing as a result of the plot.
Thoughts on the end
The end of this film is slightly predictable but still gives the audience a sense of resolution.
Final Thoughts on the Film
There is a beautiful and moving story at the heart of the film. The cinematography is the stand out feature as many of the shots are beautifully captured. I would suggest that the pacing is altered slightly.
