love an Aussie indie film about family!

Fun and very grounded film about an australian family, small scale but does characters quite well i thought!Feels very 2022 in terms of being modern in how it looks at things like sexuality and monogamy so if you like those kinds of issues this is a good fit for you.. also nice urban view of sydneyi also liked the sibling relationships and thought there were lots of funny small moments between the sisters especially (although i think these siblings hugged a lot more than i do with mine haha maybe that's just me).This movie made me want to watch more australian movies because it feels very true to the country i have grown up in.

Utterly Boring with NO REAL STORY

This is why Aussie Indie films SUCK. This is a really boring film where NOT much actually happens and when things do happen, they are towards the end, so this being under 1 hour 17 minutes, it could have been a short film and should have been. There is NO story here, the first act (if there is one) struggles to identify a setup, a real reason to propel the characters into a journey. It's an uninteresting, non-compelling bunch of scenes that's trying so hard to be a story let a alone a movie, this is NOT a movie. The main character played by Mia Atemis is a weak character portrayed by an inexperienced actress, some moments are hit and miss and there are some strong moments too, ill give her that. Most of the actors barely pass in acting, the standouts definitely being newcomer Alex King and long time veteran John Batecholor. Ellie Claplan is also strong and delightful to watch. There are NOT enough stakes here to even warrant the characters (siblings) to pursue a relationship with an estranged abusive father. It's really pointless and also staggers with trying to showcase each siblings' problems but there is NOT enough time to try and tell 3 different sibling's stories. There's way too much music which tells me there is NOT enough story or much to say in this weak story-telling. Not shot well (looks like a soap-opera, lighting is weak good locations, but overall this film has no real drama, no real reason or purpose and never really gets there, its almost happy ending before it even wraps up the film. Terrible writing and dialouge and worse of all inexperienced Director. This just seems to be a push for female-driven directors within the LBGTI community (which i have no issue with) But just seems that the agenda is if you're from a minority you get to back a film that would never get made by anyone else because its not strong enough to be one. The ending will leave you wondering why this film was ever needed to be made and you will walk away never remembering this film. Sorry guys, I tried to like it but there's not much there. Don't believe any reviews that tell you that there is something powerful here.
