It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

I saw this movie recently and I LOVED IT. Everyone in the theatre had a great time and I could tell because they were laughing during every scene. Scrolling through these comments, it's unfair, upsetting, disconcerting, and saddening that this movie is receiving the ratings issued to it. And for what, political reasons? This is a solid independent film made by a great female director. If you want a great laugh, watch this film. If you want to be put on an emotional roller coaster, watch this film. Put your political views aside and make your own choices! I can clearly tell the low ratings are particularly influenced by the recent comments by one of the actors in this film; however, this is not HIS film. It is Shana Feste's film. It is Christopher Plummer's film. It is Vera Farmiga's film, and so on. His remarks shouldn't be associated with any of the cast or crew's. This movie is about love. It has representation and it addresses real-life concerns everyone experiencesI The film includes a lot of outstanding and fun performances by every cast member. Boundaries is a beautiful story about life's discoveries. The cast and crew are lovely people and I'd hate to see this film get tarnished because of this never ending political drama.
