    A reasonable treatment of incest viewed from the daughter

    A low budget tv movie but the sensitive storyline was done reasonably well. Michael Jayston as the father has you wanting to believe him if only at the start. The mother does not believe the daughter so she runs off with her best friend. Later short of money she is persuaded to offer herself on the streets but her first time is on her 16th birthday and she doesn't go through with it. That's pretty much it, but striking for all that - I saw it when it came out and not since. Robin Weaver was very good but where is she now?
