Honestly; a very well done feature by a new filmmaker. Watched as part of the Portland film festival that was going on the other week.
The cast is interesting, and the world the characters inhabit is very believable. Lots of skilled acting where the newcomers feel as effortlessly performed as the more experienced folks. The camerawork is inspired yet a little inconsistent at times, but is made up for with very natural-feeling lighting in the vein of Dallas Buyers Club or other Jean-Marc Vallee films. Sound design has some problems, but captures the anxiety of being inside the protagonists head. The direction and script are ambitious and definitely showcase a future talent that's worth watching.
