The director really wanted an inside look into sororities rushing, however it was very apparent she couldn't get anyone to really talk about it. So it turned into a boring character story where the director made the terrible mistake of making themselves apart of the story where they was no correlation to do so whatsoever. If you couldn't get any of the students to talk, then shift the story more to the sorority consultants or previous graduates. Easily could have been cut down to 60 minutes.

And the first 3 minute intro is an absolute piss poor start to give the viewer a false expectation of what they perceive to expect.

Went into this doc hoping (and expecting) a deep dive into sorority culture and the rush process. Not necessarily a hit piece, but something that goes beyond surface level. What I got instead was a compilation of things I could have found with a brief Google search and interviews with a director about her alopecia, desperately stretching to make it relevant to the rest of the documentary. I want to be clear that I found the director's statements about growing up with alopecia to be heartbreaking and I feel a lot of sympathy for what she dealt with, but if I wanted to watch a doc about alopecia, I would have done that. This felt like a real missed opportunity to dive into the complexities of sorority culture in terms of sexism, classism, racism, and ritual, but it barely scratched the surface.

Interesting documentary about a fascinating, layered topic.

However the pacing was stilted, with only a very small part of the documentary focused on covering the rush process.

The director also interjected into the film multiple times about her experiences with alopecia, and how those experiences paralleled to the experiences of the girls pursuing a sorority. Her experiences and stories with alopecia were extremely important and meaningful, however they didn't relate super directly to the main content of the documentary in an obvious way, and the interjections broke up the pacing and emotional swell of the film.
