Motion Picture Rating (MPAA)
Rated R for pervasive language, some offensive slurs, sexual content, nudity and violence

User review:

Wooden, amateurish and cringe worthy acting, which is strange considering the fact that the male lead has acted in some serious movies. Awkward dialogue. No depth in the story. A strange surreal ambience (not in a good way) that portrays some reality, which feels unnatural and anachronistic. Overall, an amateurish execution that feels like a student film, which is a shame because the elements for an excellent movie seemed to be all there, but were simply not executed well.
