It's a dystopian crime drama set in the eighties with a bleak undertone that's truly enjoyable if you can find that special kind of suspension of disbelief reserved for political moral bankruptcy and civic apathy. Don't expect a happy end.
In general, dealing with current circumstances can become easier, more bearable, less overwhelming, when we know the history of how we got here.

My thesis, in other words, is that we are witnessing an escalation of violence against women, especially Afro-descendant and Native American women, because 'globalization' is a process of political recolonization intended to give capital uncontested control over the world's natural wealth and human labor, and this cannot be achieved without attacking women, who are directly responsible for the reproduction of their communities.
