A collection of desperate and deranged souls looking for a break in life and looking for love. Both are so hard to come by. It can wear you down just looking. Other people get breaks, but not them. Just when they think they might have a break to cling to it gets ripped away. And then the pain sets in again. And the desperation and the sadness and the grind of life. It all just keeps wearing them down. Once they had ideals, once they had dreams. But that was so long ago. It's all been lost in the swirl of time and the crushing, cold darkness that never leaves.
This movie is hard and very realistic. I was not expecting that. I thought it might be a sleepy little charmer, but it's more of a kick in the gut. I would call this a hidden classic. It should not be forgotten.
