Kate went to watch the Austrian movie Amour Fou. <\/b>  <\/p>\n<p>  Amour Fou is a tragic costume drama from an Austrian director Jessica Hausner. It was shown in the new \u201cLime Light\u201d section at the IFFR-2015. In line with the \u201cLime Light\u201d to present the most striking cinematic works, Amour fou is a visual killer.<\/p>\n<p>  <b>Quite surreal<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  19th century Germany, a married ill woman and an aspiring poet decide to commit suicide to eternalize their love and stop worldly suffering. This is the sort of film you usually see shown in obscure small movie theater or super conceptual hip cinemas for connoisseurs. So it was quite surreal to see the almost full cinema hall at Pathe, the home of box office monsters.<\/p>\n<p>  <b>Stunningly beautiful<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  My sense of delusion grew even stronger as the stunningly beautiful frames graced the screen while my neighbors were casually chewing popcorn and sipping on their beer. It\u2019s hard to blame the audience, though. Even though the film looked like a series of the finest Old Master\u2019s paintings, the range of activities on the screen was quite despondent: eating, dancing, singing, eating, walking, eating, talking, and finally dying.<\/p>\n<p>  <b>Patience tester<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  The slow pace matched the atmosphere of the film perfectly, but for the modern overstimulated audience it was a true patience tester. Yawning, nervous fidgeting and watch-checking \u2013 half way through the story. <\/p>\n<p>  I made a bet with myself (yes, this is what happens to the lone cinema-goers) on how many people would last. 35 minutes since the start of the film and the first victims leave the hall. To my surprise, the rest stayed and seemed to have enjoyed at the end.<\/p>\n<p>  <b>Read more about IFFR:\u00a0<a class=\"gco-link\"
