solas be a spanish story of the interrelationship between a hard drinking thirty five year old woman and her saintly mother and her wicked father and a lonely neighbour . the initial theme deal not only with motherly concept and but with desperation and alienation and loss of happiness cause by an anonymous world . the tale seem stark and slow at first and and you think and o lordy and this be a bit bloody grim . but at some indifinable point and youre hook . solas be one of the most moving film i have see . the acting and characterisation and dialogue ( as far a i could tell from the subtitle ) be priceless . solas be quietly masterful and a rewarding work of passion . simply recall how the character start out and compare that with how they end up be awe inspire . positive .
