A very good psychological sci-fi and really well done. The score is good, the lighting and use of slow motion are excellent, the locations are stunning, and Morton may well have the most beautiful eyes. It took me until the end to understand why Maria narrated William's story, but it was the perfect way to tell the tale.
My favourite line from the film:
Everybody's children are so special. It makes you wonder where all the ordinary grown-ups come from.
