Story with no story

I found the caracteristics very shallow except for Mikko (the priest), who did quite a good job except for his language. I don't think any priest would use curse words like he did.The woman seemed to be just a sex addict. I didn't find any deeper interaction between the caracters, just addictive sex.I liked the relaxed dialogues, Aku Hirviniemi was excellent.There was not really a proper story or anything deeper. The movie had lots of glanses given between the wife and the guest and even though I normally love just slow camera scenes, in this one it didn't work.Yet I give 5 stars since I loved the surroundings, the building, the dialogs and Aku Hirviniemi.The wife and the guest on the contrary weren't credible at all...

Women Empowerment, Not

So in modern day diverse dialog if a man does this to his wife, he is going to be called many unpleasant names.. But, If a woman does this, well, a girl needs what she needs. More power to her. You go girl you go!See the double standard here?And I really tried to find a fault in her husband but couldn't really.So, what are we advocating here in the name of women empowerment and other slogans we hear nowadays? Classic marriage is so ancient? Being faithful to your spouse is so passé ? Let's drop all people and their culture in blender and make a new mix of brave new generation?I can only hope that some of crazy trends and ideas we're witnessing today eventually simmers down and fade away, like 70's hippies and the like .
