An astute, thought-provoking film, but the ending left me just as dissatisfied as Lisa is throughout the movie, in her journey to not follow by the rules of today's superficial society.

disquieting treatment of a dissatisfied Manhattan woman

The lead performance by Jennifer Van Dyck is hypnotic and devastatingly real and would have earned an Oscar nomination had the film been backed by the kind of money that usually supports such contenders.

A yuppie in a midlife crisis alternates between repression and indulgence in new experiences. Sensual but unsympathetic.
