I attended a Q&A with the writer/director, Miranda July. She alluded to this being a deeply intimate story. Really candid and provocative. Brave and bold that illicits dark material to bring consciousness.

Likes & Dislikes

“It is especially by our “likes and dislikes” that we cut ourselves off from the wider mind (and the wider world).

— John Cage
