Wow..
This movie was the strangest movie I have ever seen. I found it extremely hard to determine between which was the past and which was the present. Especially since the mother and wife was played by the same actress, I found it extremely hard to distinguish between who was who and when they were that person.
The artistic quality of this movie was absolutely phenominal!! As the mother is running to the printing press, my favorite shot of the entire film was through the railing just after she has run up the stairs.
The dreams of the past were also my favorite part as the small tub disappeared and the ceiling began to fall in. The creativity and amazing slow motion of this scene made me stop breathing.
I also found the fact that the grown man's face is never shown to be an important aspect of the film. Despite the fact that I had a hard time understanding and comprehending most of it, I felt this added to the aspect of seeing things from his perspective and seeing his thoughts and reactions to his past. It also seemed to help the audience [at least for me] to develop a relationship with this character because it was based off his feelings and reactions.

I also love the shot through the railing that you mention. And for me the slight slow motion of the three women walking through the hallway into the printing room has an amazing effect as well.
