Unfortunately I didn't have time to write a review at the time, due to seeing too many movies in too few days. In fact, I think the Variety review misreads the film considerably. The film is actually quite sympathetic to its subjects and manages to move between both Mardi Gras cultures incredibly effectively. That being said, some disclosure earlier in the film might make it easier to see it as a more personal project. I saw this at Full Frame and really liked it.
