I came to see this film by chance and it reminded me of a book i had read which it turns out the film was based on. The book in one of my favourites but the film left me confused with the careless approach that takes away from the serious topic which it deals with. But considering heaps of Australian books for teenagers that should be made into films and haven't this was a good choice. Maybe one day a film-maker with sense will make a better screen version.
