One of those films that I watched and had no clue what I had just seen, or what the point of the film was. I believe the following quote from Roger Ebert perfectly sums this up film:

"Now I have seen it twice. The movie is like an infernal machine that consumes all of the energy it generates, saving the last watt of power to turn itself off. It functions perfectly within its constraints, but it leaves the viewer out of the loop. This may be the first movie that can exist without an audience between the projector and the screen. It falls in its own forest, and hears itself."
