“A surreal exploration of that in-between age when childish fears and fantasies collide with the realities of teenage society.”
“The brightly coloured uniforms, formalised framing and studiously ‘awkward’ performances all recall the films of Wes Anderson – but it’s fair to assume that Myers has arrived at this style on her own road, preserving the presentational aspect of theatre while capitalising on the weirdness that arises when this approach is transferred to the screen.”
“A delightful film from an exciting new voice in Australian cinema.”
“A wild curiosity that shifts on a whim…there couldn’t be a better metaphor for the inner workings of a teenage girl’s mind.”
“An irresistibly fun visual feast that’s impossible not to enjoy.”
“Trippy, fun sweet…refreshingly different.”
“Magic…offbeat, but strangely right.”
“The strength of Australian Rosemary Myers is expressed in her choice not to be trapped in any genre, but to swing easily from the registry of the vintage comedy to that of a fantastic film.”
