Alena Lodkina's dreamlike film, about a pivotal friendship between two young Melbourne women, has a poetic and sometimes surreal narrative style that conveys a vividly emotional take on the world; it reveals profound truths about the characters, even if the precise detail of their story remains slightly – and deliciously – cryptic.
The second feature from the Melbourne-based writer-director arrives in limited release on Australian screens 10 months after its world premiere at the prestigious Locarno Film Festival and its local debut at last year's Melbourne International Film Festival (which co-financed it through its Premiere Fund for new Australian features).
