If this was a "coming of age" story, I missed it. I think the setting was great, I enjoyed the fact that the audience had to develop the characters from the little information (was that intentional?) but there was no further development and if you're going to tell a story of the lives of so many in one night then you have to be absolutely exceptional at plot and character development because you have a very short time period to get the audience involved and this didn't happen (for me).
All the ingredients of great film, unfortunately this didn't turn out as expected.
