In the small impoverished town of Xenia, Ohio, Solomon (Jacob Reynolds) and Tummler (Nick Sutton) spend their teenage boyhood killing cats, sniffing glue, and generally trying to alleviate their boredom. The town's other residents find their own amusements. Solomon's mother (Linda Manz) tap-dances, local teen siren Dot (Chloë Sevigny) puts tape on her nipples, and Bunny Boy (Jacob Sewell) explores the desolate suburban landscape on his skateboard, wearing pink rabbit ears. Xenia and its inhabitants have never quite recovered from the tornado that ripped the town apart 20 years ago; the place remains inside out, raw, and shattered. (official distributor synopsis)

This was a very strange experience that I don't really want to repeat. It's not something that fulfills me, but then again it's something that shows what films can also be. It's very raw, very realistic, but at the same time it's too dark, so much so that you don't really want to see the entire thing. However, you probably won't forget it right away, which is a pretty good sign for the film after all.
