"It took a very long time to produce a very messy film. The outside praise is for the director's efforts and patience.""

"What is this?? I watched it without any context and found so many societal critiques. It almost seemed like a psychological dystopia used as a commentary of exploitative capitalism, disability, and idealism. The entitled idealism of the privileged promotes them into further privilege, while the pastoral idealism of the less privileged acts as a barrier to privilege. Either one is seen as disabled in the other's world, with death being the consequence for one, and public shaming for the other "
