CGiii Comment

For a film about the rave scene, it is ludicrously lifeless...the fault of a director who has obviously found himself out of his depth...or, has never been to an actual rave!

You need skill to play around with the timeline - unfortunately, no skill was included when this received its final edit.

Definitely, one for the MTV brigade - who will probably find it a little too dull.

The(ir) Blurb...

Two girlfriends visit a big Brazilian beach festival and decide to just let go. They enjoy the music, booze, drugs and on one steamy afternoon even each other. They also meet a young man and things can't be better. Can this paradise last?
