Featured reviews
I watched this film while in Poland and was unexpectedly blown away. Orlando Bloom gives the performance of his career with another sterling supporting performance from Alex Ferns. At times this film is challenging to watch as the lead character is dealing with the repercussions of sexual abuse, however it is a subject matter that begs to be addressed and is dealt with exceptionally well.

An excellent movie about a very sad and disturbing subject.
Orlando Bloom's performance was so well done I believed every look and sound of his character.
There are so many people who are in need of help in this world.
My hope is that this movie will help make a change, somewhere.
Underrated gem.
Yes, it's dark subject matter but the message is bright.
PhenomEnal work by the cast! Orlando Bloom delivers a performance that should have been anything but swept under the rug. This one deserves your attention.

It has more depth to it than expected. Fair warning: it is not an Equalizer-type film. It's a different category altogether.
This is an incredibly topical film with all that has come to light over the last couple of decades. Orlando Bloom was incredible in this part. He holds your full attention from start to finish and has no trouble portraying the full scope of emotions his character is dealing with. This film deserves to be seen by a much wider audience than it's limited release will grant it.

- TriviaThe film originally premiered in 2017 at the Edinburgh International Film Festival, but did not receive a U.S. release until 2020 when Saban Films picked it up during the COVID-19 pandemic. The actors Orlando Bloom and Janet Montgomery were really surprised when the film finally got picked up, as many years had passed and they thought it'd never see the light of day.
