    I absolutely love this film

    I'm a big fan of films focussing on social issues, and really enjoyed this. There's nothing to laugh at... it's pretty bleak in all honesty. It reminded me of caravaning holidays as a kid in the 70s and 80s.

    The cast is great, but it's the kids that steal the show, Troy in particular is brilliant.

    It's not for everyone, but give it a chance.

    A Harrowing Masterpiece

    A brilliant performance from Samantha Morton in this early Shane Meadows-esque masterpiece.

    Compelling and full of empathy

    An extraordinarily well told story. Beautifully filmed.Superbly acted. Compelling,full of empathy and free of polemic Simon Frith
