9/10
a powerhouse for such a little film

My dears, it is not perfect, no, but it is close. Absurdism at its best. You are not rushed in and out of the story, nor told how to feel at every moment, nor montaged through genuine character growth. You are instead dragged through the mud alongside three very beautiful and very horrifying people. People like us. And their pain... it broke my heart at times, it made me laugh at others, and it made me want to spit at the screen sometimes too! They are helpless, all three of them, just mice trapped in a maze of deceit! And yet, is it not lovely that they all try to work through their issues with one another? That is, even if someone has to die. Oh yes, my dears, someone always has to die :)
