Well, I don't really feel comfortable writing about this, normally even when the movie I'm watching is, to put it on words, horrible, I try to watch it until the last credit. This was an exception, I really hate the way the Director put the camera, all the time was a hand-held cam with a telephoto lens, with a short depth of field. Almost always in the frame was the main character, she is kinda good actress but she's not really giving anything to see, we are only seeing her face, the actions can't talk about the character. You can't see anything of the space they are acting, or see the things that are intentionally placed in the foreground, not even the background clearly in any scene. You'll never know where the other characters are placed, it's full of over-shoulders and over-objects that only gives a visually monotony and a very cheap- trick to get an introspective film about talking-heads. Introspective plus no conflict at all, soft soap opera drama and unnecessary sex scenes. But, now you know, that's the way you can get a Silver Bear for an actress.
