★★☆☆☆ Bafta-winning filmmaker Jane Linfoot makes her feature debut with The Incident (2015), a well-shot yet clinical and emotionally stunted psychological drama that fails to develop into anything particularly gripping. Annabel (Ruta Gedmintas) and her husband Joe (Tom Hughes) relocate to a house sheltered in the woods. Their affluent, metropolitan life is interrupted by the arrival of Lily (Tasha Conner), a wayward teen who breaks into their house when Joe is away on business and instills fear into Annabel. Left terrified and emotionally unstable by the event, Annabel's psychological state cripples her mind, leaving her cold and distant towards Joe, who's also troubled by the occurrence in his own way.
