Captivating and filled with the sorrowful horror of modern alienation. A simple-seeming film that will stick with you as you try to figure out how to respond. Each of these women is a Bartleby of our moment. You may try to dismiss them, but you won't forget them.

I appreciate the filmmaker's attempt to expose deep-state crimes, as these victims of covert technologies are really just that, but this film could have been directed in a manner that is much more interesting, compelling, and aesthetically dynamic. It informs but doesn't convince or entertain. Blacklisted Hollywood Actor and "Targeted-Individual" Stephen Shellen has just released an AMAZING indi film of autobiographical-fiction titled "The Spark" on the similar deep-state crimes of the organized-stalking "targeted-individuals" that exploded all over the U.S. and world after 9/11 that is a MUST SEE 21st century film...
