It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Hahaha... Just watched this Indie Film and I wouldn't recommend it to just anyone. It has many random scenes that many would claim to "not to make a lick of sense".Perhaps I may have seen the plot a little too deep, for what I saw, was a girl living under a lot of criticism, forced to be a "perfect little lady", bullied by her family for being different, tricked/manipulated/back-stabbed by them to make her do things she clearly does not want to do and has to put up with all of it daily. Everything in the movie (to me) was shown as over exaggerated and symbolized.I saw Aimy as a broken spirit. Just by living with those people who judged her constantly... no wonder she's lost her mind, no wonder she felt over protective of herself and felt that she couldn't trust her own family. After all the daily torture, she was fed up by it all. Personally, throughout the entire film, I felt like reaching out to her just giving her a hug.Aimy just wants to live her life her own way and be accepted for who she is.And just to include, I think Allisyn A. Arm did a remarkable job in bringing out Aimy's character uniqueness and features. You rock girl <3

Just a heads up, this is an art film. It's weird and unpredictable. So if you go into this expecting an easily defined setup, confrontation, and resolution, you will be bitterly disappointed. If, however, you're the type of person who can hang with the uncomfortable, unconventional, and macabre...well you might still be disappointed, but at least you'll know why. In this film you will find random characters and bizarre situations. You might identify metaphors or parallels with society. You might just sit and smile at the absurdity of it all. So here now is your choice. Dive in and see how you fare.

If you started watching the movie, got confused and irritated and then decided to check IMDb for reviews, just in case you are missing something.Some puzzle piece that will make this mess into a coherent experience - well, I hate to break it to you, but there isn't one.The only way for this film to be perceived as "good" is if you genuinely want to take a dive into a delirium.Summary: It's bad, it doesn't get better to the end, no answers or 'endings' will be happening.P.S. I hate "10 lines minimum" policy. This sht shtick doesn't deserve 10 lines.

i was trying to understand this quirky film but alas, I wasn't smoking any weed. to describe it as "quirky" would be describing a small house as "quaint" if you were a Realtor. You just can't quite make it work when you put your nuts into it and get nothing in return. Aimy is an artist who is sorely not communicating with her family. The grandmother is the main antagonist in the Brady Bunch of characters. And we don't fully understand why this is happening. It's just starts up and they just go at it, no rhyme, no reason. Crispin Glover's character floats in and out at will showing up in the shadows and his character is supposedly the love interest of the grandmother but that is just a ploy to get to the mother's wealth. Aimy looks as if she was created as a live action version of a Tim Burton animation. Everything happens within this apartment. You feel claustrophobic as much as Aimy does when they tie her up for a duration of the film.i wanted to like this but after a certain point, the quirkiness wore off and the ending wasn't really an ending. It;s a film that you just want to out out of your mind so I watched The Big Short, a much better film, to clear the mental palate.
