The Willingness to Disappear from a World That Does Not Understand You

Reviewed by alain-kapel5 7 / 10

A hard, but engaging watch

A solid Taiwanese indie drama about sexual fetishism, guilt and remorse. A lonely young man is harassed after two girls witness and film his act of stealing a woman's underwear. His fragile mental state deteriorates as the girls become more bold with their harassment.It's a tough watch, not only for its raw, documentaristic approach, but also for its lack of dialogue in many scenes. This means that the film is relatively sparse, while also being non-linear, so it can be a challenge to watch even with its 95-minute runtime. But underneath the gritiness and non-mainstream sensibilites lies a film that acknowledges some hard situations a person can face and asks us to consider understanding someone before judging them.Admittedly, I didn't find this film as powerful as I wanted it to be as it dragged a little towards the end. But it lingers in your memory and that's made it worthy of consideration, if not outright recommendation.
