Audience Member A moody drama that's not quite as bleak as the setting, but one that does explore 'being' through a slightly unsettling father-daughter relationship. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Odd drama. A girl and her dad live in the middle of nowhere at a petrol station. Not much happens but it had quite an intense feel to it. Disturbing issues. Weirdly quite good if you like films with not much talking and not a lot happening Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Not an easy film to watch. It's slow, gaining texture from lingering shots of detail and landscape. The tale is grim but largely credible; it occurred to me after watching that possibly no one living in the Highlands would actually lead such an isolated life. A good effort. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member I just watched a movie like this, 'Garage', last movie i watched. This one was an even bleaker story set around a rural filling station. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Very slow but beautifully made. Its almost a silent film which lets the scenery do the talking. The cast are excellant.
