Films about handicapped people are generally idealistic and naively optimistic. Not in this case. The wheelchair bound protagonist is not the classical ethical superman full of hope and determination, but a common man (played not by some household name, but by a handicapped actor) with natural needs and desires, full of anger and pain that lead him to murder. The unsettling quality of the story is punctuated by its agressive visual style, reminiscent of the works of Shinya Tsukamoto (Tetsuo, A Snake of June, Vital). A truly radical film that stands outside the trash genre structures.
