All good children

Impressive and arty film similar in style to Helen. An Irish youth travels abroad and has a holiday romance with a young girl, but things turn sour. Lots of strange cutaways (bees on cake, slug on a plate), Eno-type soundtrack music, actors in the woods, older characters with a background role, and little plot. The kind of movie that sticks in your mind afterwards unlike most other Irish-themed efforts.
