4/5

The film plays out as a love story rather than an issue film, with the couple's relationship soon becoming its most compelling element.

Barker's film is revelatory, not least for how its scrapbook vignettes of everyday life can tell this story so well and at such human scale.

As a picture of love and determination, though, it's a poignant, valuable film.
