Obviously shot on a shoestring budget, this little movie won't wow you with special effects or big stars.
Instead, you'll feel uncomfortable, maybe confused, and that's intentional. While the story is in 3rd person, those confusing scenes put you in the shoes of the protagonist of the movie, a blackout alcoholic. I read one critique (that is linked from the official movie site) which complained about the poor transitions... well to me, that was the point.
Why is there a green woman? That's best left for you to discover, instead of spoiling it for you. Even after watching it, you may not get the answer you are looking for.
The movie does meander more than necessary. It plods along at times. I was distracted by some obvious issues with sound which didn't seem intentional to me. The small budget comes through in a few too many places. The actor playing the green woman got on my nerves. I'm not sure if that was the point or not. The director and editor chose to reuse the same location establishing shot about 5 too many times. The music is great and redeems the problems with the organic sound.
Overall, I found the idea of the story engaging, if not a bit predictable.
