- Highly Recomended
First and foremost I should say. If you do not like unedited, raw movies about life with none of the false softening up of stories, then this may not be for you.

Although this movie is low budget, I think it's up there with Kids and City of God in terms of showing the tough to see realities of this world. Fiona is a story a nyc prostitute. It's shown in a way that almost feels like a documentary. Since it's a low-budget film, you can almost feel as if you were standing in the room watching as the story unfolds. There are no specialized soundtracks or covering up of creaks on the floor boards. You get it all, un-edited.

For those interested in watching a free preview, the nyc public library website has it available (I don't know of any other place that has a preview ... Read More

- This movie is the anti-Pretty Woman...it's reality
This film is about as gutwrenchingly real and gritty as you can get. This is NOT Pretty Woman, this is what the life of a prostitute is really like, no glamor, no fluff, no Richard Gere. Fiona's story, and those of her friends and her mother, is the story of too many women and children in our society, and unless you have no soul, this is very hard viewing.

- WIERD MOVIE - but strangely good.
if you want to see a semi softcore porn involving Fiona- who was abandoned by her prostitute mother, only to be mollested throughout her childhood in foster care, and eventualy becomes a crack smoking, heroine shooting, sometimes lesbian, prostitute, (who eventualy almost has sex with her mother when they unknowingly reunite the day before she jumps off a building later in life..) its a movie for you. it was actualy VERY true to real life. I dont think most of the people were actors, it looks like they got them off the street. very realistic film. just..... wierd. but a good wierd! oh yeah-its also like as low budget as they come. but that also makes it unique.
