Tony Rayns says:
The sets and props in fact deserve a chapter to themselves; created by Indonesia's leading installation artists, they include a butcher's slaughterhouse with carcasses hanging above blood-red candles in the shape of human heads, television sets carved from stone and wispy white muslin dummies hanging by the roadside to represent the dead. No film has looked or sounded like this before.

So....what do you think about these art installations?
Reminiscent, you think, of terracotta warriors and Bodies: The Exhibition?
Anon: I think it's impossible to have an opinion about them until one sees the film. If they were exhibits by themselves, perhaps; since they form a part of a film, it would need to be seen in context.
I don't know anything about Bodies: The Exhibition. Terracotta Warriors, now - that's an interesting comparison. I wonder how theatrical these installations wil lturn out to be. From the few images I've seen, it can be dangerously easy to over-interpret.
