This team had a range of talented people in it, from musicians to actors to dancers but I found the story hard to follow, unless it was meant to be one long hallucinatory trip? Spoken line at a point that I din't really see how it fitted but visually very impressive and some nice acting by the lead.

I'm giving you a 5 but I just feel like I'm uncultured here, I just didn't get it sorry! Experimental can be interesting, which this definitely was, but I had no idea what was going on haha.

Being initially unsure where and how to post reviews I wrote this in the comments in the screening room before. Now shifting it to here. A really brave effort I thought. But I feel you are working from the outside in. It could take months of intense work to discover the core idea this way. I feel that with so little time you need to know this core idea from the begining, or at least be really confident that you will find it. I feel you are exploring. The film in total needs to have a unitary value as an experience. I know that a slice or shard of chaos or neurosis can be a legitimate thing. So are we showing this, or insinuating this into the audience experience, or making a commentary on one of these? Personally, I think finding ones way is OK. Better to try and get lost than to do something less adventurous. Then again, you are quite restrained, and nudity is oddly desexualized. I was wondering if the often naked lead should have finger banged a mannequin, or vice versa, and when the camera moved towards those women covered in sheets, you should have kept going and arrived at an ECU of a hairy bush.
