Truly Dreadful Film
Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
