This film was heading to an average 6 out of 10 before the final 15 minutes. Lily Newmark plays Iona, a sheltered teenager starting at a new school, because she and her mother have been uprooted from another town, something which we feel has happened to the pair before.

The mother, played brilliantly by Joanna Scanlan suffers from a crippling inability to be social, mostly due to her appearance, and this has a snowball effect on her relationship with her daughter.

There are a few scenes and a few performances that I felt were slightly weak. But the way the third act pans out is gripping, shocking, dark, hard hitting and engaging. I didn't see it coming at all, and the very end scene offers a lovely pay off.
