Reception[]
On Rotten Tomatoes the film has 2 critic reviews, both positive.[2] Gary Goldstein, writing for the Los Angeles Times, said that although the film was "too quirky for its own good and its bumpy narrative structure can be jarring, the film sneaks in quite a bit of depth and emotional punch."[3] Writing for Variety (magazine), film critic Joe Leydon called the film "At once starkly eccentric and deeply humane" and "a sympathetically bemused look at interconnected lives of quiet (or else colorfully voluble) desperation."[4]
