If you can overlook the stilted dialog, shallow and stereotypical character "development", choppy editing, plot gaps (where there is plot), and poor quality, you might be able to discern the point that the film maker says he's trying to make in this cliche-fest. The very important issue that is addressed in the film often gets lost in a quagmire of directorial missteps. Perhaps that's why the film maker attempts to make the same points over and over again in a manner that is so transparent as to be somewhat insulting to the audience. The soundtrack is the highlight of the film and it is actually quite good. It's nice to see my hometown in this film and a relief that no one I know is in it.
