Mark Kermode Observer (UK) 5/5 Stars “Wells knows exactly what she’s doing, and her storytelling is as precise as it is piercing.”
At a fading vacation resort, 11-year-old Sophie treasures rare time together with her loving and idealistic father, Calum (Paul Mescal). As a world of adolescence creeps into view, beyond her eye Calum struggles under the weight of life outside of fatherhood.
