I saw this as part of my midnight movie pass at Telluride this year. I've been doing this for years and have come to expect dark depressing films at midnight, always a challenge to like them at that time of night I think. But this film, though dark and depressing, is amazing. The director got some truely suprising and amazing shots for his film, not a typical looking documentary. The subject is a bit hard, and nothing good comes of really anyone in the film but I didn't expect that. I was surprised how much I did enjoy it, I was not looking foward to its grim subject but I am glad I saw it.

Everybody was so blown away by this film whom I spoke with at Telluride. WHy is that? What is it about such a "dark and depressing" film that was so exhilerating?
