4/5

The vice-like grip of The Swallow’s escalating tension is complemented by Christopher White’s sorrowful score, Aza Hand and Adrian Conway’s Ifta-winning sound design and Richard Kendrick’s lush cinematography.

3/5

The metaphor involving the wounded bird of the film's title is laboured, but overall this is a job well done and a fine showcase of acting talent right across a cast.

3/5

It's an unusual film, heavy-handed and melodramatic, but beautifully shot and neatly performed. Seek it out.
