Was completely sucked in by the first shot. I still remain baffled at how this movie was made. They access that the filmmakers were given is unlike anything I’ve ever seen before.

Feels lime the film mistakes detachment for subtelty. There's something very interesting about watching love become a transaction but Lo keeps everything so restrained it feels like a doc afraid of it's own emotions.
