Review: Expressing bisexuality in a poster design is a fairly brave step forward. While the artwork isn’t that impressive, it works well for this kind of independent film.

Review: A staid, uninspiring trailer that nevertheless highlights a story that has a lot of potential for rich drama, solid performances, and theme-based innovation.

Oscar Prospects:

The film may not have enough foreign language in it to qualify as a Best Foreign Language Film nominee, which is the only place it would have a chance.
