This was quite a disappointment, although it had the potential to be a good story. Spoilers: a young guy arrives in the city and the movie constantly hints at his problems, but for the most part they don't reveal what they are, so no real character development, but he is dishonest and not really a good person. He gets a girlfriend (the most interesting character of the film) and later finds out that she's male-to-female trans. Before long she realizes how dishonest he is and she dumps him. At the end he crashes a meeting where she is and when he's given the chance to talk to her he just starts pacing back and forth in front of her. I'm not kidding, that's how it ends, no talking - just pacing. A pointless non-ending to a poorly thought out story.
