I've seen countless of sad, tear-jerking, heartbreaking, painful movies but I've never seen such a depressing one, to the point where it is asphyxiating: so somber, so terribly pessimistic, so uncomfortable in countless ways; you almost wish with all your might for the camera to stop filming and you feel like screaming but you can't even move cause you're lacking oxygen. I really wanted to stop watching, but minute by minute you are immersed in that nauseous atmosphere, in a reality that sticks and won't let go. And even after finishing, it still won't let go.
