A fascinating film with plenty of humorously evocative moments
It's a difficult task to find the right balance between conveying a message and doing it in a humorous, lighthearted manner.

This is also where the film goes off track.Hot Spot features three stories that are humorously evocative and a fourth one that's deeply disturbing.(more)
