Reception
The film received mixed reviews. Wendy Ide of The Times described it as "an experimental British drama... with a densely intensive visual verve." Leslie Felperin of The Guardian praised the film's stylized look but said the acting was "painfully weak" and advised Romer and Kitman "to take classes in how to handle actors."
The film will also experience its Italian debut in the specialist youth selection of the Rome Film Festival.
