Art deserving of recognition

The ones that have voted this to 1.1 are insane! This is a fantastic experimental film, and the screen language of its cinematography which with its chaos portrays the inner feelings of the two female main characters (note how the cinematography at the guy parts is calmer) is simply genius! The way it mixes actual documentary parts in the form of a live fictional interview, with non-fiction reactions from the interviewee's, slips in perfectly with the rest of the film's fictional plot.

I also like how it avoided to become a moral story where the Norwegian girl's friend didn't end up to save the day and rescue her from the asshole. In the end it was a way of showing the self-destructive nature of both guys and girls and somehow it manages to make you sympathize with the assholes as well. You don't have to like them, though you do have that feeling where you know where their frustration comes from. This is especially shown in Pearl's insistence on her boyfriend lying to her when we know for a fact he is not. All together a very beautiful portrayal of the Pilot Season in L.A. (this is how it actually happens in real life during Pilot Season)

It is experimental art and deserves a lot more appreciation than the IMDb community has given it!
