Estetiškas budistinis pasakojimas „Pavasaris, vasara, ruduo, žiema... ir vėl pavasaris“ smelkiasi į ramybės ir aistros, kančios ir palaimos, gėrio ir blogio gelmes. Nuostabaus grožio gamtos kampelyje nufilmuotoje istorijoje pasakojama apie vienuolio gyvenimo ciklą - keturis metų laikus. Pavasarį jis yra vyresnio šventiko globojamas mažas berniukas, vasarą - žmogiškus jausmus pažinęs ir meilės ištroškęs paauglys, rudenį - trečią dešimtį pradėjęs ir rankas krauju susitepęs atgailaujantis jaunuolis, žiemą - mąstantis apie vienatvę ir ieškantis savo tikrojo pašaukimo vyras. Gamtos reiškinių niekas negali pakeisti, ir režisierius brėžia lygiagretę su žmogaus amžiumi.

The Giallo film reinvented as an experimental S&M-tinged fever dream, told through a combination of color-gelled cinematography and jump-cut photographs, infused with dark sensuality and perverse cruelty. The short films of the directors of Amer are technically rawer than that film, but they show what was to come in terms of themes based on giallo films and an abstract style, from the use of still frames like in Chris Marker's La Jetée to harsh coloured lighting. They are worth seeing by themselves as a refining of their ideas into a fantastic debut feature film.
