From the blog Well Above Average:
Produced and directed by newcomer, Jason Kohn, the film offers a compelling narrative which weaves together the stories of a corrupt politician, a kidnap victim who had both ears cut off, a plastic surgeon who specializes in reconstructing the ears of kidnap victims, a police officer assigned to the special task force for kidnappings, a kidnapper and a frog farmer.
