About

If you want a bleak, intimate thriller-drama that puts you inside an unstable headspace, this may hit hard; Not for you if you dislike unsettling imagery, sparse dialogue, or slow-burn ambiguity like Top of the Lake.

Pros: immersive mental illness portrayal; intense, unsettling atmosphere; strong lead performance | Cons: thin story development; disturbing self-harm moments; confusing, minimal dialogue
