Writer-director Charlotte Regan’s debut feature won the World Cinema Grand Jury Prize: Dramatic at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. Newcomer Lola Campbell plays 12-year-old Georgie, who’s been living at her London flat since her mother’s death, making money by stealing bikes, and pretending to live with a fake uncle. When her long-estranged father Jason (Triangle of Sadness' Harris Dickinson) returns, she’s suspect of his motivations. Some critics found the story a bit predictable, but Campbell and Dickinson are an affecting pair.
