Told almost as a quirky love fable bathed in icy blue and full of the most poetic coincidences, this is an atypical romance that doesn't even let us notice how strangely hooked to these odd characters we become, hoping above all else that fate will bring them together in the end.

Life is repeating itself endlessly with similar patterns which cannot be controlled by personal will. Yet, nothing is determined, as there is always an opportunity cost. These patterns run along with the natural flow of life. Yet, there is nothing such as a "natural flow of life". God's will determines everything, and is the only thing that prevails. Do the math and we'll talk again. 97/100

I had never heard of this movie or of Julio Medem, the Spanish director. I went to watch the movie without having any idea of what I was about to see. As I watched the first few minutes of the movie I started to get into it. I adored the characters of Ana and Otto as children. Otto and Ana became brother and sister because Otto's father married Ana's mother. Soon Ana and Otto began to sleep with each other and they fell in love.Things changed for Otto when his mother died. He left everything and everyone behind. He became a pilot for a mailing service. Ana decided to leave also and she went to live in Lapland, Finland. Otto and Ana ended up meeting here.The movie was full of twists and turns. It portrayed the way Ana saw life and the way Otto did.To Ana, life was full of coincidences, while Otto saw life as running in a circle. Overall, it was an enjoyable movie,
