What was the point of this a really poorly done student film or something?

I think the symbolism was kinda lost on me ...pretty intense though! When it started to rain I felt so bad for her lol. Someone has some a pretty good eye for cinematography though I thought it was pretty well constructed . I was hella waiting for an end credits scene though

Yeah, that's pretty much what slab climbing is like.

Creepy and sadistic. Not sure of the point here. Thumbs down.

First, cautiously pushing upwards with battered palms; then, a desperate roll-over destined to fail, much like wrapping a necklace around her hand (admittedly a bad idea). Could you have set the mood and told two separate stories without a word? Unsurprisingly, the writer/director was also the cinematographer (which I bet is his biggest skill). Taken as a resume, this guy will definitely get some job offers out of this thing.

But didn't this speak to all of us on some level? I have a hard time believing people could watch this and not feel something once the water comes. I don't think it was a brilliant piece of filmmaking. I did think it was kind of beautiful. Copy of Saw style movie but lack of any story? If that gets you off whatever but not for me. I am not a fan of watching torture with no story behind it. I have over 1000 movies on my external hard drive. I will watch pretty much anything at least once (only maybe like 20ish that were so bad I could not even finish)... this did nothing for me.

It's Australian made, most Untied States of Americans, are not used to "subtle" If it's not screaming obvious, it not worth watching, to many. I liked it, I also like that the ending is ambiguous, also nice use of hand crampons

I remember watching "Tomorrow: When the War Began" and thinking it was waaaay too highbrow for my lil american brain. And they're called "handpons."
