CGiii Comment

Beautiful title....and, the winner of the 2012 Iris Prize - UK entry.

Benny is an adorable dickhead...perfectly played by Swan.

It starts off so well and then, it runs out of steam...the audience is left dangling like a lost leech.

Pretty good...but, undeserving of its hefty win.


Trailer...
