I wouldn't call the movie slow paced or boring, as some of the people here say it is.
Any good movie leaves room for interpretation, and this movie isn't short of it.
From how I saw it and how the scenes played out I'd say: Not everything is meant to make sense, it's a "fever dream".
Amanda was suspicious of Carola stealing her kid, but that never happened. She took the kid back to the old clairvoyant to save her from imminent death by making another "migration".
Maybe she wanted to keep her daughter, but the husband came and took her. She then decided to leave her own family and disappear.
David said he didn't share half with someone else, but when Amanda's husband comes back at the end, he acts exactly like Nina would, getting on the back seat where she always stays and holding the teddybear that she always had.
This made me believe David and Nina are sharing their souls/bodies, but Amanda didn't make it in time to the green house and died.
When David is pulled out of the car, he looks as the car gets farther and farther away but he remains still - as if the invisible thread between them gets tighter and tighter. He looks as if he is abandoned by his father.
If David arrived at the green house during the migration, he was moving. The old lady said only the things that are ready to make this switch should move.
It might be possible that Carola was planning all along to steal her child, but I'd have to give it another watch to notice how things unfolded.
She might be wearing heels so she doesn't get contaminated. Carola might have taken Amanda outdoors so much on purpose.
That is also a possibility, but I didn't pay attention to this so much, since it all seemed innocent and light-hearted.
I hope this sheds some light into what this movie is about and why it isn't bad at all, at least in my opinion.
