This is just a weird movie, but it has an incredible musical component that accompanies it throughout its duration and alternates with silence. The cuts are unbelievable, as if they further disrupt the coherence of the whole. And it works, in the sense that it is really strange. You simply don't see such unpleasant and bizarre characters. As an experience, it is definitely worth watching. ()
