CGiii Comment

Semi-autobiographical...and, a totally unpleasant breakdown of a marriage seen through the eyes of the nascent young filmmaker.

Not one character is remotely likeable - and, that goes for the kids as well...hideous little things.

It's difficult to say anything positive about a film that irritates rather than entertains...after a short while it becomes that unreachable itch.

The(ir) Blurb...

A narcissistic artist finds his self-satisfied world turned upside down in the wake of a disastrous exhibition and his previously devoted wife's extra-marital inclinations.
