I spent about 1/8 of the film watching allusions to the protagonist's victimization and the remaining 7/8 watching her be a pathological, cold and manipulative b-word. By the end I felt nothing for her. If anything my heart went out to her former cell mates.
There were a lot of unnecessary scenes that did nothing to advance the plot. They felt as though the director were just being self-indulgent.
The fact that the protagonist and her daughter appeared crazy caused both characters to fall backward into the pool full of sickos that filled the diorama.
I think the film got lost in its own style and the protagonist just didn't strike me as believable.
Overrated but stylistically enjoyable.
