From New Zealand comes this intriguing and multilayered story of an unlikely pair of friends: Paul, a burned-out war correspondent, and Celia, his student and admirer. On a recuperative trip home to his father's ostrich farm, Paul decides to stay in town and teach at the local high school, where he meets Celia, a promising young writer. Their relationship is frowned upon, and when Celia disappears, Paul is the prime suspect in her disappearance. This crisis inspires him to confront his past and shape his future.

A beautiful scenery, small-town mentality and complicated family relationships. During the whole hour and a half you are watching a family drama, which at times changes into an interesting crime story, just so the last half an hour completely decomposes you. The film consciously does not tell you everything, it keeps something for later so at times I had troubles with the main character, who did not say more than was completely necessary. On the other hand, Matthew MacFadyen delivered such a performance that his scared face will haunt my dreams for a long time. I have to say I had a similar look on my face while watching the film. Certainly the best New Zealand movie I’ve seen so far.
