This is not a slick, meretricious production; the three principals are real and appealing. But their lives, and their story, are underdeveloped. We sympathize with the mother-daughter trauma without understanding why it's so abnormally severe. The symbolism of "Circuit Carole" (named after a motorcyle accident victim) isn't much help. And what point is made by the heroine's singing? The film's shortness and slightness suggest that there isn't a story there quite yet; maybe next time.
