this be such a bleak and plotless film that unless you be look for a reason to slit your wrist it probably best avoid . through a series of brief vignette in a surreal australian landscape we be acquaint with lola and her unfortunate daughter alice both of whom be destine to be forever betray not only by the people they encounter but also by each other . the unrelenting grimness be even reflect in their sexual encounter with a succession of squalid and unsatisfying relationship . i try very hard to fall asleep during this movie so that the time would pass more quickly but fail miserably and have to endure it to the end .
