“I saw this during a screening in Prince Charles Cinema in Leicester Square. I will confess that I donu0026#39;t normally watch independent movies and have no idea about the directoru0026#39;s previous work. I wasnu0026#39;t expecting much. The shots, lighting and environment were pretty good, the editing was good too. Considering the limited budget and that they made this movie in 22 days I think the movie is pretty good. But having said that if I judge this movie neutrally I would say itu0026#39;s an average plus. The plot resolves around a death of a pretty (and lost?) girl. The whole plot resolves around this and sometimes becomes too boring and lagging. The director has tried hard to make this like an art movie but sometimes the artistic expressions donu0026#39;t make any sense. There is some nudity and sex in the movie but they are neither erotic, not do their presence contribute to the movie in any way so I donu0026#39;t see the point of having those. It feels like they just wanted some skin in the movie. Still the movie is enjoyable. The major complain I have about this movie is that it does not give you a satisfactory ending or a proper ending with answers. I really dislike open ended movies that leave the conclusion to the viewers and if you are like me you will not like the ending too.”
