Reviews for Tiresia
Full of powerfully emotional scenes, even if it's almost entirely untouchable--obtuse, bewildering and almost agonisingly slow.
Intense, intriguing, beautifully framed and intellectually challenging, Tiresia defies easy categorisation (much like its principal character).
Only students of Greek mythology will appreciate Bonello's contempo version of Tiresia and even they may wonder what his point is.
