Georgie (Lola Campbell) is a twelve year old living alone after the death of her loving mother. Ali (Alin Uzun) is a slightly older boy and crime partner. They steal bicycles and do petty crimes to get by. Out of the blue, Jason (Harris Dickinson) shows up and claims to be her long-absent father.
This is a very sweet Dickensian drama. It's a try and tested premise for indies. Georgie is cute. The two kids are cute together. Jason has a sweet reveal. Beating up the other girl is poignant. I do miss Ali in the last act. This is all very simple and sweet from British filmmaker Charlotte Regan. It's a solid indie.
