Conclusion: 4/5
This is director Luna Carmoon’s feature directorial debut. Brilliant performance from Hayley Squires. I actually enjoyed the first half of the film more than the second half. I did find it to be a very disturbing and tough film to watch but that is because of its difficult issues it touches on. The themes that are present are anguish, trauma, loneliness and sexuality.
