Sometimes when you have a beautiful and powerful story on the paper, it unfortunately doesn't automatically mean that it is going to translate well to the silver screen - which is the case of Woman At Sea. I actually do believe that the book of the same name tells a beautiful story of freedom and independence that leaves some pieces of the protagonist's future to the readers imagination. Sadly as a film the story feels unfinished and the ending anticlimactic. I wish there was more to the denouement, but at the same time I understand that the film-makers had to follow the original book and for that reason could not make any big changes. Like I implied in the beginning - I think that it is actually an accurate adaptation of the original book, but I also think that this book was not suitable for a film adaptation in the first place...
