REVIEW: In a small New Zealand town, 16 year-old Michael (Jordan Selwyn) leads a lonely introverted existence with his single mother Amelia (Rebecca Gibney) whose guilt and alcoholism threatens to drive her cherished son away. Uncomfortable with the adolescent exploits of his “friends”, he finds escape through a passionate love of maps. Unexpected friendships with classmate Alison (Mikaila Hutchison), whose sweetness and innocence belie a dark secret, and Mary (Bonnie Soper), a blind young woman on the cusp of adulthood rouse Michael from his isolation and send him n a journey of self-discovery. As his life begins to spiral out of control, Michael is forced into some difficult choices about the course of his life. Director Harold Brodie has spun a haunting and tender coming-of-age story which features standout performances by newcomers Jordan Selwyn and Mikaila Hutchison, and famed Australian actress Rebecca Gibney .
