It's very dark comedy, a combination of great beauty (the scenery, the animals) and great ugliness. The actors tried very hard--though they were limited by being forced to recite most of their lines in a monotone--and there were certainly some interesting characters, surprising plot twists, powerful music, and some pointed satire referring to some of the strangeness about our own society's mating rituals.
I will give the authors credit for staying true to their artistic vision--but it is a sick one, in my humble opinion. Because of the undoubted merits I mention above, I cannot give it the lowest rating, but I really do not recommend it. It was about two hours long, but it felt like five, and the ending didn't justify the wait.
