Synopsis

Laila, a girl on the run from her family, is hiding out in a Yorkshire town on the edge of the moors with her drifter boyfriend. When her brother arrives in town with a gang of thugs who will stop at nothing to bring her back, she is forced to flee for her life and faces her darkest night.

Our take

Heralding the arrival of a distinctive new voice in British social-realist cinema, this debut feature from Daniel Wolfe—shot by the great Robbie Ryan (Fish Tank) under menacing Yorkshire skies—serves up an unflinching study in cultural intolerance and stagnation that pulses with tension.
