The Champirons are successful in their ability to direct believable non-actors, but their shots linger too long on sensuality and violence, which emphasizes that the material lacks the very weight it infers as subtext: belief. While there is discussive exploration, there is little subtext applied to the narrative architecture that builds argument or message to motivate the context of these events nor the villain.
