  Soderbergh crafts a working-class murder mystery that's perfectly suited to its experimental purpose: Shot on high definition video, it's a riveting 72-minute exercise in minimal style. The odd friendship between young Kyle and middle-aged Martha, who work in a night-shift job a doll factory, is disrupted by the hiring of Rose, a pretty young woman who befriends them both. When Rose and Kyle start dating, relationship dynamics crumble, leading to a act of violence that obliterates their daily routine. In dramatizing this passive love triangle, Soderbergh emphasizes the stilted, soul-crushing rhythms of lives that have been stunted by loneliness and isolation to create an arresting in its visual precision, while finding unexpected beauty in physical and emotional bleakness.
