This looks lovely…

Living in rural New South Wales with her mother and sisters. eleven-year-old Lou’s life is turned upside down when her father walks out on her mother. Feeling abandoned, she copes by building a tough outer shell but blames her mother and refuses to let her get close.

Life becomes more interesting when her estranged grandfather (Doyle) moves in to the family home. Doyle brings chaos with him, not least because he is ill and confused. In this state, Doyle mistakes his granddaughter for his long departed wife, showering her with attention in an attempt to win her affections. Lou, intrigued, plays along with the fantasy.

As the game progresses, Lou begins to experience genuine care from Doyle. Her tough shell begins to be chipped away to build a friendship – in the most unexpected of circumstances.

Have a look at the trailer:

Lou is a powerful emotional drama from Australia introduces an astonishing first performance from Lily Bell-Tindley in the eponymous role and John Hurt as her grandfather. A tear-jerking but life-affirming experience.
