Feels a lot like what Billie Piper was going for in her recent 'Rare Beasts' - a comic, essentially expressionist portrait of a woman with severe anxiety - except that - Sorry, Billie - this one is actually watchable and funny. It's also relatable even if you don't share the protagonist's condition, and interestingly insightful, both about that condition and the prescription pill habit to which it leads.
Starts off mugging just a little too hard, feeling a bit like a Jeunet and Caro, but I'm glad I didn't let this put me off. Once it gets into its stride, It's pretty much pitch perfect, and lead actor Débora Falabella has both great charisma and great range.
