It is a powerful story that tugs gently and delicately at the heartstrings.

As gripping as it is poignant!

Director Ram Madhvani and writer Saiwyn Quadras tell us the story flitting between time-lines. It�s masterful how the central character�s present situation (the hijack) takes her back to the days of her abusive marriage. These intercuts show us a unique insight into the probable workings of her mind...(more)
