But they are geniuses compared to the screenplay writers! Nothing happens in this movie. Then they do a bit of relaxing and driving around (like on vacation). All they do is wander around looking for other humans for a few days. That would make sense (if they want to find other humans).

What happened? Where did all the human bodies go? What will they decide to do? Stay in Iceland? Try to find a way to get back to north America? Do they go to a radio or TV station and broadcast a message (continuously on a loop) asking anyone remaining to call them? No. At this point, I'm rubbing my hands together because this kind of setup inherently has endless fabulous questions to answer and possibilities. When they check the internet, they notice that no messages on forums or news stories exist after about 3:30am (their time). In this movie, two American tourists wake up one morning while on vacation in Iceland. These kinds of movies automatically contain endless possibilities for interesting, fascinating situations and behavior. I also love movies about "solitude", or take place in an environment of extreme "solitude". I must start this short review with a disclaimer. All in all a mixed film that I personally believe, needed to offer a little more focus, to have broad appeal but is still an interesting watch nonetheless. In this respect this film really is quite outstanding. Its wide screen cinematic's are really quite breath taking when combined with Iceland's exceptional, rugged natural beauty. What is remarkable, is the visual quality of this film. The problem with this film is its so quiet and so subtle, that is, out of focus, that its very understandable, that its meaning may be overlooked.Personally I liked Bokeh but I can fully appreciate why others may not be so taken with it. Indeed, as the only supporting character hints at, we are "one and one and one". One see's the beauty and opportunity in their newfound "freedom", whilst the other simply feels constrained, isolated and oppressed by it. As the film unfolds, what it means to be alive clearly has different meanings, for the main characters. Most specifically, its true message, as I understand it, is about the meaning of "existence". It's message has a diffused quality that's difficult to pinpoint. Certainly, there is much about this film that's out of focus. Its an appropriate starting point, when discussing this film. Here.Bokeh is a Japanese term that describes out of focus points of light. Made up of several sections (Rbc’s Emerging Storytellers program, No Borders International Co-Production Market and Spotlight on Documentaries), we find latest updates from the likes of docu-helmers Doug Block (112 Weddings) and Lana Wilson ( After Tiller), and among the narrative items we find headliners in Andrew Haigh (coming off the well received 45 Years), Sophie Barthes (Cold Souls and Madame Bovary), Terence Nance ( An Oversimplification of Her Beauty), Lawrence Michael Levine ( Wild Canaries), Jorge Michel Grau ( We Are What We Are), Eleanor Burke and Ron Eyal ( Stranger Things) and new faces in Sundance’s large family in Charles Poekel (Christmas, Again) and Olivia Newman ( First Match). The premiere post-tiff destination (September 20-25th) in the film community and a major leg up for narrative and non-fiction films in development, the Independent Filmmaker Project (Ifp) announced a whopping 140 projects selected for the Project Forum at the upcoming Ifp Independent Film Week.
