With a couple of minor flaws that I consider passable, I really enjoyed this one. Cinematography is wonderful, acting is superb across the board, but specially the three main characters. Sound design and score work really well to make you feel unease, cold and oppressed.
The bleakness and depressing story makes you feel the fact that for some there's just no light in sight, all the way to the end. The cycle of behavior and illness causing others to reject them, which causes worse behavior and illness. I think it works because is believable, and because through all their misery and despair, they persevere, and show incredible strength through unimaginable suffering.
It's a window into a piece of a horrible life, no highs, all lows, no triumphs, no redemption. Like Diane said to Bojack Horseman, sometimes life's a b*tch and then you keep living.
