It poignantly addresses some big themes - including the plight of asylum seekers and female alcoholism - while capturing the feelings of restlessness derived from being stuck in a remote place with a lack of opportunity.

Not many original parts here, but it's a charming vehicle nonetheless.

Standard rom-com template is enriched with a keen social conscience, striking performances and an affectionate sense of place in Miia Tervo's raucously enjoyable film.

Spiky, funny and desperately sad, Aurora is the tempestuous core around which this intriguing feature debut from Mila Tervo rotates; powerful and singular enough to overcome the romantic comedy trappings of the narrative.

8/10

All in all, Aurora is a feel-good, starkly-contrasted romance about two people at their ends of life, looking for a new beginning.
