Full reviewFour people struggle after hearing some life-changing news in this ensemble drama that won writer-director Sarah Watt the Discovery Award at Toronto.
As the weekend looms, three troubled people are faced with potentially life-changing events. After her father's death, Meryl (Justine Clarke, Danny Deckchair) is forced to cut her bereavement short to focus on a deadline for work. Nick (William McInnes, Unfinished Sky), a reporter, awaits his cancer test results while his photographer Andy (Anthony Hayes, War Machine) is preoccupied with his girlfriend's unplanned pregnancy. When a train crashes near Meryl, Nick and Andy interview her - sparking a romance between Nick and the grieving woman.
