CGiii Comment

Not exactly the hook-up you would want.

There is an interesting conversation about racism...but, unfortunately, it really goes nowhere, shame. The unnecessary 'dream talk' kills the dynamic completely.

As for the ending...nasty!


Trailer...

A casual hook-up takes an unexpected turn in this meditation on race, politics and history.
