The direction, soundtrack and cinematography were very impressive and there were some very strong performances from the cast too. The themes explored were realistic to teenagers and dealt with grief and mental health with particular poignancy and sensitivity. Would recommend!

Movie Reviews
A small budget triumph
Taking into account that is a small budget
This isn't a ground breaking film or any of sorts although if you take into account the budget and the fact they are first-time university student filmmakers, you got to give real credit to these artists. This coming of age film does it job with exquisite realism which in turn makes the viewer to revive their own school years.
Inspiring
For a film made by students on a very small budget, don't really know how people can fault this! Thought the acting was phenomenal, the plot engaging, and the messages inspiring. Definitely worth seeing for anyone interested in independent film or gritty coming of ages!
