CGiii Comment

Perhaps, just a little too ambitious for the budget...it all gets a bit erratic with so many storylines going on at the same time.

And, with every character being pretty vile, it's difficult to feel anything...when it all goes sour.

The gay couple have a very bizarre scene near the end...naked in a caravan!

The(ir) Blurb...

A rich American couple, a family of Dutch criminals, a French gay couple, a working class family from Germany and an illegal Moroccan youth and his kid brother, are all in Amsterdam, each with their own story. Different reasons make their paths intertwine, leading to a dramatic climax that changes their lives for ever.
