Quote:
"In many respects, Strass Café resembles the works of Marguerite Duras: an insistent music that returns as a strange leitmotif, the same slow editing, the same tendency in the immobility of shots and sometimes the mobility of the camera, the same monochromatic tone of the narrators and, finally, the same stigmatized narrative-representative spaces between image and sound."
