This film is art. The script is one of the best i've ever seen, the acting is unbelievably good by all three lead actresses. The film is slow, but it need to be to capture the full range of emotions going on. I also love how still the camera is most of the time, which merely captures the moment being played out and letting the viewer observe even the small details that all brings forward the feeling of intimacy. A film that sheds a very real light on how life for these women in the eighteenth century might have been.
