A burbling stream of conscientiousness by a working class teenager (the superb Ashley Thewlis) recounts scenes from her life in the North of England. Culminating in a casual gesture that reveals a devastating secret, the film packs an unforgettable punch and forces us to review everything we have seen and heard.
