LIFE DURING WARTIME

A sequel to or a variation of Solondz's masterpiece Happiness, here we are confronted again with the deepest sadness and darkest awkwardness of ordinary broken lives. Three tales interweave around love, lust, betrayal, death and memory. Looking though the lens of humanity, in all it's dark and subtle comedy, the film emerges as a complex, maybe unfinished, poem about forgiveness: it's impossibility and necessity.
