This film doesn't tell a story, it shows you its message instead. There is hardly any kind of development yet the mood is so overpowering and the cinematography is so breathtakingly beautiful that it leaves a profound impression nonetheless.

The ratings are quite low, and in my opinion this is not surprising at all. This film is odd in that it has no real plot, there is hardly any dialog and if you expect romance you'll mostly be left disappointed. It shows you tiny snippets of characters' back stories, but leaves them unexplored and unexplained. The film gives you ideas about topics that are important and worth thinking about. However it doesn't explore them, only taking note of their existence and then leaves it to the viewer to come up with their own conclusions and thoughts about them.

This film avoids imposing opinions, it stimulates thought processes and thus it can be either very impactful or very boring, depending on how you approach it as the viewer and how much the addressed topics resonate with you.
