Reviews, Awards & Nominations
”It’s a superb trip into an addled mind, mixing wry humour with big emotions”
”Refreshingly Stylish… The performance from Sarah Roy is the centrepiece… she offers many sides to Catherine, playing to each strength and weakness skilfully.”
“The performances from the cast are expectedly good, particularly Sarah”
– The Fountain
“A bit of a one-off, and very worth 82 minutes of your time”
“Boasting a superb performance by Roy and assured direction by Zari, it delivers no shortage of emotional gut punches and startling revelations.”
“Inevitably harrowing, we are in the same setting as classics such as Nicolas Roeg’s Don’t Look Now (1973)”
“Capturing the obsessiveness of Heavenly Creatures and the uncertainty of The Library Suicides.”
