CGiii Comment

Alcohol, drugs, credit, infidelity...racism, hatred and jealousy - it's all here.

A terrifying film...because, it is so calm and mundane to begin with...it slowly builds...into something rather special.

It is a little amateur in places - don't let that put you off - the thought and integrity behind this little film are (equally) admirable and incredible.
