// A lonely childhood. . .
That's generally what I would tell people when describing my testosterone-poisoned, deeply isolatory, middle school & high school life.
I had friends, don't get me wrong...
at least, I think they were my friends.

Wow.
It's rare to encounter a film that feels like it was made for you. To experience something so personal, so close, and so relatable that it bewilders the mind and leaves you thinking "how does this film actually exist?" When everything resonates with you on such a deep, emotional level, you just have to wonder how other people take in the experience, other people who are not like you.
