What people are saying
Long have I wanted to make a film that plays anarchically with our obsession with social media and self-improvement, our desire for fame without notable admirable skill and, let’s put it out there, the monstrosity of modern motherhood
Daniella’s script is audacious, disturbing and deeply human, and Rosamund is among the boldest actors working today.
