Review
This movie kept me intrigued and interested every minute. Each of the students has something to hide, and each feels shame and unhappiness with their lives. With the feeling there is no one to talk to – and no one to say R U OK?
The film flows naturally around its central contrivance, employing unforced performances by unprofessional actors and a visual style that uses available light to pull you into the worlds these students inhabit.Jim Emerson
There’s nothing new about teenage angst, but there’s plenty new in the way first time director Murali K. Thalluri treats the subject in 2:37. It’s a stunning debut..Urban Cinefile Critics

Deleted Scene

This scene was deleted from the movie for some reason – I think it is very poignant and if you look closely you can see many of the people at the funeral are perhaps thinking this could be them.

Alternate Trailer

A more aggressive trailer highlighting the reasons many teenagers do not ask for help.

Theo (Xavier Samuel)

Homophobia in action – and the boys on the field

A contemporary, ensemble drama telling the complex tale of six high school students whose lives are interwoven with situations that so many of today’s youth are faced with.
