A movie powerful enough to leave me speechless, sad, and empty. To approach the most taboo of subjects head on, glaring it down with a million lumens while the rest of the world looks away is truly an understatement for what this film achieves. Although I cannot relate to this film as some less fortunate individuals can, I imagine this degree of trauma and brokenness is exactly what is left by the things that occurred in this film. And the director tackled it poetically, finding the perfect cast to encompass every bit of misery and emptiness meant to be reflected. This hardly feels like a movie, but an unsettling glance into a shattered human's existence.

This movie is psychological art, it is outstanding yet heartbreaking. This movie has challenged what I know about film and I truly don't know that I will ever feel this much, or this little, from another film.
