Storyline
Featured review
This is the tender and engrossing story of a lonely teenager who has a chance meeting with a young woman with whom he immediately bonds.
It opens with a scene of 20 something Liz having a bad trip. She is a world traveller who has landed in Sydney and is soon seeking medical attention for her skin rash. Meanwhile, depressed 18-year-old student, Jay, is soon standing on a cliff contemplating an end to his privileged but meaningless existence. When the two meet in a hospital waiting room, there is a chemistry that sets this briskly-moving, black comedy in motion.
We meet Jay's jaded socialite parents and this film really takes the piss out of them while the youngsters become a lovely couple. It's a touching story of love, life and death with great performances from Freyja Benjamin debuting as Liz, and from Jordan Dulieu as Jay.
This film shows so much talent from the writing and direction of Nadi Sha to the stylish production. It reminded me a little of the wonderful US film, Dream With The Fishes, in its themes and trajectory. It is an Australian script of uncommon quality that tells an original story that would be especially good for teens & twenty-somethings who are wondering about what is worth living for. I laughed and cried.
