CGiii Comment

Possibly the most harrowing/disturbing beginning to a film - after the first 15 minutes you know that this is not going to be a walk in the park - more like a journey into an inferno of human insensitivity.

Faultless performances with some excellent direction make this one of the most uncomfortable films to watch.

Beware there is little respite - but, a damn fine film no matter how you look at it.


There was a trailer...but, it has since disappeared.

 

The(ir) Blurb...

After the death of a friend, a household of long time friends and family are tossed into the myopic world of grief, where jealousy, betrayal and desire override more polite reactions to death.
