I think anyone who gave this film a poor rating has missed the point.
You cannot review this piece as a 'normal' film which follows a standard narrative.
It is a visual representation of sitting on a dockside watching the world go by, it is utterly absorbing, thoughtful and leaves you wanting more.
It is the antithesis of the multiplex safe Hollywood cgi digital junkfest we are used to seeing. The technique of shooting on black and white film with a clockwork camera and self processing the material obviously drives how the films pace and narrative develops because the filmmakers have to make compromises, but this somehow makes it all the more interesting.
Get it watched!
