1.0

From the synopsis, I expected this to have some kind of twist rather than events playing out in such a realistic manner. I got no real message from this story except "patriarchy, huh?" which I've seen done much better elsewhere. I went in looking for some kind of messed up or twisted relationship between two women and it ended up hinging on a man anyway.
