Mozart And The Whale

Aroview: An earnestly-conceived dramatic romance in which two Asperger's Syndrome (a form of autism) sufferers - a preoccupied taxi-driver (Hartnett) and a semi-neurotic artist (Mitchell) - find a connection amid the tricky emotional territory of their affliction.

Imbued with a definite sense of authenticity, Norwegian dir. Naess coaxes some cantankerous, prickly moments from his scenario that lift it far above the expected telemovie formula. An impressive depiction of a relationship that simply won't fit smoothly together.
