Description
‘[A] five-star triumph… With its energy, its creativity, its raw passion and its fun, this film and its newcomer cast are the best thing I’ve seen at this year’s [2019] Toronto film festival… The group around Rocks are capable, in the best possible way, of laughing about nothing, laughing from sheer directionless joy. The sadness, when it comes, is piercing—yet so is Rocks’s resilience and her philosophical acceptance…’—Peter Bradshaw, Guardian
