    So bad

    This movie was so bad I had to watch it to the end to see it finish in it's awful splendor. The characters were unbearable and reminded me of two people in constant constipation. You always hopes that they would relieve themselves but even in the end, they cannot just take a dump.

    awful

    Couldn't be worse if they tried. any rating above zero doesn't even make sense.

    Everything a really good film ought to be. Enjoy two hours with this one!

    Drama ending in romance. (not spoilers, Drama & Romance are advertised genres) Two emotionally wounded people meet and develop a complicated relationship. Late in the game, they find out they knew each other as children. (reconnection described in IMDb Storyline). That helps them bond again and each deal with their past abuse: psychological, physical, and sexual. This is not a violent, sexual, nor depressing film -- it is a well-done development of two people discovering how to overcome their past and have a future together. What begins as drama ends in romance. Manu Intiraymi and Kim Jackson Wheeler play very well off each other and their acting is superb. The script, supporting actors, and cinematography were all very well done. To me, a Best Film in its genre(s) and everything a really good film ought to be. Enjoy two hours with this one!
