An intricate examination of the relationships of a man-child with vision and genius coming out of a family which lacks both in a stratified society. Powerful emotions are conveyed through the main character's conflicted attempts to find belonging and the frustrated attempts of those attracted to him to bestow inclusion. The settings and cinematography are excellent. An extremely engrossing story with top notch performances. I noticed the soundtrack during my second viewing. One of the best I have heard. It deepens the experience of the characters and their situations. Mr. August has delivered a masterpiece.
