On the contrary, I felt that I understood your film quite well. I thought the director's decision to force the audience to rely on an unreliable narrator was exceptionally effective. Reminiscent of the Japanese classic, Rashomon, it leaves the viewer to decide what is truth, and what is fiction. The use of flashbacks, however, was not quite as effective. Ignoring the fact that they were a lazy narrative device, the flashbacks only served to confuse the viewer, without adding anything of substance to the story. The use of old clips especially dimished their effectiveness. The audience is not gaining any information about Kimmie's state of mind, or feelings towards Nalkin, despite a significant change in these feelings. Instead, the viewer is left viewing rehashed clips of situations which they have seen before. I would have appreciated a little more exploration of what Kimmie was feeling in these scenes, instead of the flashbacks.
