"Illusions & Mirrors" is a 2-minute short film from 2 years ago, well actually it is the trailer for the Vienna Film Festival that year and they have a tradition of inviting notable artists to come up with a very short introduction. This one here is done by Iranian female(!) director Shirin Neshat and it stars Academy Award winner Natalie Portman. No talk in here, no colors, just a very short mysterious story about a mysterious woman. I must say, it was okay from an artistic perspective, but in terms of story or any other components, I was not really impressed. Worth a watch only for huge Portman fans. The rest is not missing much and can very well do without watching this one.
