  • Fantastic film. The pacing, with the gradual reveals of each character’s issues, was excellent. A film that is worth repeated viewings.
  • ‘Films’ within films, Plays within ‘Plays’ – two sisters seemingly opposites, yet at times indistinguishable. What was What was real and what was simulation? Superb acting!
  • Innovative film making, excellent acting. I really enjoyed it.
  • A perfectly cut diamond of a film with acting of the very highest order. Simply wonderful.
  • Great film.
  • Blew me away! Such a realistic portrayal of a complex family with generational trauma. Amazing acting.

  • Beautiful filming. Brilliant acting. Very thoughtful.
  • I found it absorbing and thought provoking.
  • Terrific film, wonderful acting, great soundtrack. Further viewing will reveal more.
  • Mesmerising. The crack in the home eventually mended. Not sure about choice of music – more a Leonard Cohen film?!
