REVIEWS
“Schimberg creates a house of mirrors so brilliant and complex that it becomes impossible to match any of his characters to their own reflections, and absolutely useless to reduce the movie around them to the stuff of moral instruction.”
“Shrewd, and fantastic, and something all its own.”
“An existential black comedy delivered with flair and a steady gaze — and two remarkable performances at its center”
