I have read over the comments left for and about this movie and it strikes me that some people GET IT but most do not. Yes, this is a very strange, non-traditional movie, but that is what makes it GREAT. And, I do mean GREAT. Most Independent Films you see have the same style of story line, the same style of (just get the shot) cinematography, and the same type of common editing. This film has none of that. It is completely revolutionary as far as I am concerned. I think this film really made a statement and that is something few films do anymore.

I know this film is hard to find. But, I think its worth seeking out. Especially for film students like myself. It really lets us know that, yes, you can still make art in the film-making process and you can get it released and out there to be seen.
