"Off-the-charts bonkers, a movie that defies categorization," just some of what critics are saying of a film filled with plot twists, unexpected turns, no spoilers here, and questions of truth and perception.

I heard it was because of full frontal nudity.

    You get a full frontal shot of Billy Evans in the shower. No idea what the point of that shot was, but somehow it works with the rest of the film.

    It's because "you can see everything". I'm sure Nathan asked if he could film him in the shower as a joke. Billy and Elizabeth are allegedly participating in the documentary in order to be transparent, and being naked is being (physically) transparent.

    This was addressed in an interview. Allegedly it was Billy's suggestion. I got the impression that 'transparency' was the excuse, but the real reason is he just wanted to show off and seem transparent. Especially since he comes off as the most opaque one in the whole film IMO.
