Rural Ireland. 1981. Nine-year-old Cait is sent away from her overcrowded, dysfunctional family to live with foster parents for the summer. Quietly struggling at school and at home, she has learned to hide in plain sight from those around her. She blossoms in their care, but in this house where there are meant to be no secrets, she discovers one painful truth.
Rex Reed, Observer, 100% Made with sensitivity and care by first-time writer-director Colm Bairead, combines serene editing, quiet reserves of strength, and subdued performances that allow you to think and feel instead of just watch.
Wendy Ide, Observer, 5 stars. One of the most exquisitely realised films of the year.
Kevin Maher, Times, 4 stars. A coming-of-age tale with an unerring eye for detail, this seemingly familiar drama set in rural Ireland in 1981 is also quietly subversive.
John Nugent, Empire Magazine, 4 stars. A peaceful poem of grief, sadness and learning to find your voice, told with empathy and care by first-time feature filmmaker Colm Bairéad.
Peter Bradshaw, Guardian, 5 stars. It is a jewel.
Chris Knightley, Tansley Film, 4 stars. It's a beautifully-made, well-acted, well-told, quiet story that's sad at times.
