This is an interesting and compelling story, and it definitely kept me intrigued, but unfortunately it's also pretty all over the place and ends up just feeling really messy; I was almost left with more questions than answers. It does tackle some important themes, but again in quite a haphazard way, and while of course it was always going to be very dark, at times it felt like a bit too much and as if it was verging into 'trauma for the sake of trauma' territory. Overall, then, this wasn't terrible - just pretty middle-of-the road for me.
