Insomniac X Bleak portrait of poverty and sexual violence in the shadow of a US military base. Its characters are fatalistically degraded to the point of hopelessness, creating a viewing experience that is hard to endure, despite the sometimes poetic nature of their tragedy. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/25 Full Review Read all reviews
