Although Mr. Paradjanov has a reputation as a prankster, I don't think this is an elaborate joke.

The storyline is bitty but the images are stunning and burn themselves into your brain. Glorious.

It's a unique film experience, one that is visually satisfying even if its narrative may be unfathomable.

...Dazzling....The work of a true visionary....A bold and intricate visual triumph...
Los Angeles Times
The undeniable visual pleasures offered by the imaginative images and rich colours are unfortunately undercut by the stylised presentation.
