Plot summary

Reception
Dan Fainaru of Screen Daily wrote that "Most audiences will probably go along for the ride mainly for the piquant stuff on the menu, though they are ultimately bound to be as sceptical about the higher concepts of it all as Eloy's brother is when he's told about the 'magical' experiences of his sibling."
