The love affair, between two adults in their late 30s, is mature, erotic and grounded in recognizable emotion, and the setting couldn’t be better – emphasizing both the timelessness and temporal nature of what they’re going through. British actress Claudine Spiteri is moving and absolutely convincing as a passionate woman determined to leave a mark on the world. I’ve seen a lot of movies this year, but I don’t think I’ll forget this one. It has a strange, longing beauty about it.
