This is the 17th film in the Stuttgart Fantasy Film Festival.
This is a minimalist low budget film with a claustrophobic atmosphere. Three young people go on a boat trip: Jonah, his best friend Richard, and Richard's girlfriend Sasha. Jonah has bought Richard a harpoon for his birthday, but every time someone uses the word "harpoon" Richard corrects him and says it's a spear gun. Is there a difference?
Tensions are high, because Richard has recently discovered that Sasha has had an affair with Jonah. Friends become enemies, and the closeness makes things only worse.
This is a fascinating film as a character study of people under stress. The voiceover narrative annoyed me at first, but I grew used to it. What I didn't like is that all three of the characters are unpleasant. I wanted to sympathise with one of them against the others, but they equally repulsed me.
