A modern fairytale of border crossings and intergenerational persistence. Beautiful music, excellent performances, and a landscape like a character. There were a few undeveloped stray ends in the plot that left me confused, but it added to the mystery.

There is a promise given to audiences of music yet the only thing heard is people humming between the walls, in their graves and under the earth. The banality of deaths of the mucisians adds another tune to silence.
