Full disclosure, I was involved with the music of the film. The director has told me there have been a few trolls posting bad reviews, but when you read them it's clear they haven't seen the film all the way through. So I thought I would share my thoughts.
This is a rather unusual film, but that is really the point of it. I don't want to give anything away, but I know what the over arching story is about and it involves Fake News and conspiracy theories in the world of diplomacy and international politics.
This first part of the film is just the set up and you have to watch till the end AND you have to concentrate to see that there is something very amiss in this world of espionage.
It took a massive amount of effort over a long period of time and even if you don't like it, you have to admire the determination of the whole team, and also the quality of what has been produced.
This isn't Bond, nor Bourne, nor The Third Man - although it there are elements of all of these there. The director describes it as Fargo meets The Americans ... also fitting comparisons, but at the end of the day, I think it is a unique film and worth a watch.
