Director : Andrea Arnold
Running Time : 118 mins
Mia (Jarvis) is a violent minded fifteen-year-old who has been kicked out of school and spends most of her time wandering aimlessly around the Essex housing estate in which she lives. When her mum gets a new boyfriend, Connor (Fassbender), she starts to change her ways as he inspires her to act on her real passion – dancing.
This started off rather annoyingly with stereotypical teenaged estate kids acting like idiots and fighting and swearing for no reason, but once Fassbender showed up and started interacting with Jarvis the movie became something different. It’s a shame that the obvious has to happen, but director Andrea Arnold manages to handle it in an adult fashion and ensures that the story isn’t just about sex.
