I had to pause and give myself space at times from the intensity of the pity i felt. the secondhand embarrassment and cringe was bearable but the emotional turmoil kayla had to go through hurt me. the film is incredibly realistic, amazingly written with wonderful performances by all the actors and the ending was cathartic. the painful scenes really dragged out though and made me acutely aware of the torture that can be inflicted by the slow passing of time 7/10
