I first watched "The Tortoise Under the Earth" at an IHC screening a year ago, and it left a lasting impact. Watching it again last month, I found it resonated with me even more deeply than before. Here is what I wrote about the film:

A stunning film. Quiet, powerful. Its visual poetry matched by a melancholic subtlety portrayed in the deeply moving performances of the lead actors.
