Best movie of this year hands down!
Please don't spend money on this.
Best movie ever!
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

When the boy kills a man who is bullying him the pair return to Poland and have to deal with the emotional fallout of the killing. The film certainly challenges the viewer: at one stage it's easy to laugh at the murder scene, even though a man is being killed; and the big question, of course, is should one root for the fit, attractive boy even though he has committed the murder (or, at best, manslaughter) of a homely, out-of-shape man? The film is full of long silences, and the two major plot threads - will the boy's crime be discovered, and will the lovers' relationship survive - are left dangling at the end, but I'd watch it again.
