Nurse and patient on an almost deserted oil rig .... and then the dragonfly danger lurks, but luckily the film manages to avoid this.
Beautiful characters, an atmosphere in a minor key, the great location and ultimately a firm punch in the stomach, which is also a big eye-opener.

Good film about a somewhat idiosyncratic woman who starts working as a nurse on an oil rig. A slow film that also starts rather slowly in which a bond is slowly formed between the two main characters, who both carry a secret with them. Two beautiful roles by Sarah Polley and Tim Robbins and it is their moments together that make up the best part of the film. A small 3.5 stars.

A very beautiful, unique and atmospheric film. Sad and intense. It touched me. Especially the gripping story of Hanna (Sarah Polley). Very well played. 4.5*
