Ed Travis’s review:
Wow! This was really good stuff. Told almost entirely from a subjective point of view of a girl swept up into the drug trade in probably the worst 48 hours of anyone's life. We see the whole drug trade through her frightened and clueless perspective. It really works.
There is a single shot take (I'm a sucker for those) that I had to watch twice because of how intricate and astounding it is!
Highly recommended.
