- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of anyone who's ever talked to their pet and anyone who loves a strong drama. An animal steals a fair few scenes.
- The mood
- Thoughtful and character-driven.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 7 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
In 1861 Selika a young African woman brought up by a noble French family is forced from her comfortable life. Alone she sets out to gain her independence.
