Sinekatalog’s take
Milčo Mančevski's film-within-a-story has a New York burglar telling an old woman a tale of two brothers in the West and the Balkans. Ambitious and visually bold, its two halves don't always cohere, but it has strong sequences.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
