Would give a 9, but I'm giving a 10 to try to counteract some of the overly low ratings (in spite of the 14 awards!).
Definitely recommend for girls, not only because of type of story, but also as this gives a good example of what kind of guy to avoid.
Recommend for anyone because of Genevieve Bujold, and of course the location filming, done apparently at great difficulty.
I really enjoyed the musical score, which is one of the most beautiful I have heard in a long time.
Again, this great effort won many awards, and so an overly low rating is childish, and can really be ignored. I would definitely suggest seeing this fine independent film.
