A grimy, voyeuristic endurance test where boredom curdles into cruelty and the audience is complicit.

How it feels: Dark, absurd, cynical and tense. Slow-burning and fine in the background.

Content: Strong language. Mild violence and sexual content. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
