There's great ideas but they're not going far enough into them. The directing isn't really good either and the main actress doesn't play well in my opinion. The movie doesn't really have a story it's strange, there's a lot of scenes that I can't find any use honestly and it felt like hours... kind of boring. But some great ideas though
