It's a film it's hard to dislike, set in a beautiful part of Scotland, with solid direction, and music and about very important subject material.

It would have been better to have gone the extra mile and really dig much deeper into the causes, feelings of and symptoms of depression. It seems the protagonist wants to off himself at everthing that doesn't go perfectly in his life.

The film is also structured in a very sober and boring manner with awkward pauses which somewhat seems like it's a bit of a soap opera, ready for TV and not really a big screen work.

When I watched this film you could have heard a pin drop. It was an excellent and thoughtful film I will definitely watch again the actors were wonderful and lots of local talent as well. I am sure we will be attending many more of Maz's films. Very proud of our local lass.

Writer/Director Marilyn Edmond truly does, what can be tough subject to tackle, with such delicate creativity and poetic justice. Supported by a shoestring budget and tight schedule, Edmond creates a resilient piece of cinematic storytelling with a careful dash of Scottish humour and heart. Blending drama and comedy is no easy feat and Edmond portrays it so beautifully, supported by the stellar cast and showcasing the magnificence of the Scottish landscape. Guthrie nails his leading performance with such small subtle characteristics, showcasing the poisonous effects of mental illness in contemporary manhood. Reilly and Fulton support the story in their own distinctive way The story, the themes, the messages, this is a story that needs to be seen. Writer/Director Marilyn Edmond is just getting started.

Great film well made around a delicate subject. Great cast and director and wonderfully shot

Everything about this film is just incredible for a small budget film and directorial debut. The story subject, which is becoming increasingly relevant, is handled beautifully by writer/director and acted out perfectly by the cast. The setting of North Berwick plays an equally major part in the film, as does the music, lighting and cinematography. Top Mark's.
