Iosseliani is a truly controversial figure of film making; You either like his films or fell asleep watching them. No in betweens. Having only minimal traditional narrative or story telling clichés, the film manages to illustrate true emotions without being bombastic or over-sophisticated. Doing this by showing everyday people who are only drifting with the waves of life, wishing to get away from their existence.There's a slight sarcasm involved in the portrayal of how everyone is unhappy with what he/she has and wants to be like the other who wants to be like him , and vice versa.(Really sharp.)However, Itt all ends up in positive, placing emphasis on the need for seeking personal freedom and finding hope and refugee in true friendship, in a plastic, greedy, selfish world.
Personally, i think it has one of the most touching end sequences in film history.
