I liked the linguistic element, and it reminded me of something one of my Japanese friends used to talk about: how he was always in awe of the first Japanese and English-speakers who came into contact with each other and how they went about learning each other's languages without dictionaries or any kind of fixed reference point in terms of culture.
I loved the use of time in the film, and it was really cleverly organized.
There were just a couple of quibbles I had, and a few things I would've done differently (if I'd been the director of a big-budget film), but none of those detract from making this worth seeing. 7/10
