In an invisible territory at the margins of society, at the border between anarchy and illegality, lives a wounded community that is trying to respond to a threat: of being forgotten by political institutions and having their rights as citizens trampled. Disarmed veterans, taciturn adolescents, drug addicts trying to escape addiction through love, ex-special forces soldiers still at war with the world, floundering young women and future mothers, and old people who have not lost their desire to live. Through this hidden pocket of humanity, the door opens to the abyss of today's America.

Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Look away at your own peril.
– Peter Keough,
Boston Globe,

fresh:
Minervini has captured a segment of American society too often ignored and mocked, but sometimes he's overtaken by the urge to romanticize decrepitude.
– Dmitry Samarov,
Chicago Reader,
21 Jul 2016
rotten:
In the end, the power of Minervini's pseudo-fiction gives way to a much blander version of pseudo-reality.
– Kate Taylor,

fresh:
Miraculously [manages] to find a serene beauty amid so much desperation and squalor, honoring its characters without letting them off easy.

rotten:
It's ultimately hard to tell if the movie is trying to render its subjects with some humanity or otherwise if it's taking advantage of all these poor, beautiful losers.
