An introvert relieves the tedium of caring for his invalid mother by spying on his neighbor.
Comment

The story is a little strange, but interesting. A homely, introverted, socially inept, stammering young man who dutifully tends to a disabled, alcoholic, and abusive mother while window peeping at a beautiful neighbor. But in the middle of this film, I found his mom is not his mom, actually it is his older brother.

I found it in the middle, but actually or maybe it was obvious for native speakers, because the mom's name is Sal, and I guess this name is not for ladies.

Anyway, the end of this film, a guy who called Francis looked into a small hole on the floor and finished there. This scene makes me a little unsatisfactory.
