Fantastic!
A Masterpiece!
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
