Kristoffer Borgli’s social satire centers on a narcissistic young woman who intentionally gives herself an unknown skin disease to draw attention away from her shallow artist boyfriend. In addition to several logic problems, the film suffers from a malady common to all movies that have contempt for their characters—as viewers, we don't care about any of it and start to wonder why the filmmaker went to all the trouble to make a whole movie when he could have just write a few snarky tweets.
