Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
ChanBot i must have seen a different film!!
Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
cesetevi I think this is a nice gay movie as good as milk(2008).all three characters are needy people,have personel issues and are not happy.how they encounter is also very rare.anna thinks being nice is love.but not.anna can't get love from her family and tries to fill that gap with being nice to mara,anis or other people.she is lonely.mara is aware of evetyhing.she feels like anna's mistress.mara also can't get love from her family.after she loses her father she tries to fill that gap with sleeping with anis.maybe she thinks she has to be nice to anis.anna and mara characters are very similar.but what they share is not love.they try to escape their family and find each other.we don't know anything about anis family.In the end everything collapses around these three characters and they face their real life and stop pretending because they don't have much choice.I like that chair very much :) is that real? I am a maria de medeiros fan btw.she's a perfect fit for her role.That gun pointing scene is exaggarated I guess.because nobody runs out with a gun when he sees his car being stolen.I read a review from someone in amsterdam.that review is so unfair and harsh.before writing such a review you should have looked what rewards this movie got.
Rob A beautifully filmed story about trust and the strains that out-of-the-blue events can place on it.Its pace is humdrum, the boy is emotionally needy and inexperienced and the two women have some differences they haven't yet come to terms with as a couple. The three main characters are totally believable, vulnerable and engaging - I couldn't help but feel empathy for all of them. I really didn't notice if there were mistakes in the background, the story about the three of them had me captivated. I thoroughly enjoyed this film.
schifezzuole The movie has a storyline that does not work, you soon lose interest, it is full of stupid mistakes (e.g. since when do border guards in Tunisia speak Italian?) and it is truly badly acted. Many - supposedly - dramatic moments are acted in a way that makes them pathetic and laughable. The worst things of all is that it tries hard to have a intellectual/ social/ political message when at the end it is only a rather stereotypical story of lesbian love and meeting of different cultures. There is nothing really interesting in this film. Another silly Italian movie that is made solely with (Italian and European) taxpayers' money...
maisonland The film "Shelter" by Marco S. Puccioni is a film that exhibits the personal and interpersonal relationship between two women (who happen to be lovers) and the involvement of an illegal immigrant who enters both of their lives only to demonstrate and unfold by chance all the problems between the two protagonists.The relationship between the two women seems to deteriorate at the beginning of the film. Anna, discovers Anis and chooses not to tell her lover, Mara. Anna assumes all the responsibility or power in her decision not to tell Mara. This perfectly foreshadows the lost of trust and hope between Anna and Mara..However, the young boy, Anis is used as a pawn, between the two women to use at their disposal in order to display power. Is this a subconscious statement made by Mr. Puccioni concerning the West's problems with the South?But we obviously see the class differences from Anna to Mara and from Mara to Anis. At some point, all three people need each other in order to exist and change, but at the expense of whom?
