I didn't know what to make of it. It was apparently originally meant as a 15 minute ad for YSL and only later expanded into something more feature-like. The dialogue scenes are interesting enough but I imagine it'll be the sensory overload stuff (that I assume was the sole content of the ad) that will be all it's ultimately remembered for, if it's remembered at all.
