" Very funky and sad. A lot of people say all the sex means it’s misogynistic, but I disagree because it doesn’t glorify any of it. It shows how much Jeanne suffers because of the men in her life. A must-watch, but not with your parents or if you have a weak stomach. "

"As a victim of SA, this movie was very moving for me. I find myself rewatching it constantly, though it doesn't have a traditional happy ending. The sex scenes can be a little much, but I choose to view several of them as symbolic.Also, be careful watching if you're sensitive to flashing lights. It's not epilepsy -friendly"
"This might be the most tragic animated film I have watched at this point.It’s animation it really good and also includes watercolor which is spectacular you don’t usually see that much detail in a animated film.I did get really uncomfortable in some parts of the film.The only person I can recommend this film to is people who know what they’re getting into,watching a movie with really uncomfortable scenes with good animation."
