An epic - meant only for very patient viewers with interest in absurdist literature.

This reminded me of Albert Camus's "The Stranger" movie is filled with long shots....absence of words for most parts.....

The Police: "Why did you kill them ?" Protagonist: "I realize what I am saying has no equivalent. But, since I suppose you'll have statements and reports to fill in, I'll try to be as precise as possible...... .....I didn't get divorced because I wanted to. And getting divorced isn't just breaking up with one person. I couldn't leave things like that... .... I don't know what you think but I believe that the Justice system cannot comprehend the level of complexity of the relationship I had with my wife..."
