Divine Intervention

At first "Divine Intervention" plays like a series of bizarre comic sketches. Set in Palestine the characters are virtually mute and we scarcely hear any dialogue. We get the feeling we are witnessing a slice of the divine comedy that is life.

I didn't know where it was going at first but then a romantic angle sprouts up out of nowhere. We realize that no matter the situation human beings behave much the same way and with the same instincts. The absurdity displayed here only magnifying our sometimes underlying irrationality as a species.

Highly recommended.
