A young woman, Lucy, is alone in an isolated house awaiting her sister who is soon to be joining her. It seems she is there to get away from someone and soon here and her sister will be able to start a new life fresh.
Now I say ‘it seems’ because like much of the movie, nothing is made completely clear. Why is Lucy here – not really sure. What has happened in her past to mean she is taken meds that her sister keeps telling her to take – who knows? Why mustn’t she use her phone – something about being tracked on social media maybe? Who is the ‘bad man’ she is escaping from – no idea. I’m not a movie goer that needs everything explained but some details would be helpful.

Neighbours is the latest soap to come under fire from conservative family groups over its teen pregnancy storyline. Critics of the controversial plot, that sees schoolgirl Bridget (Eloise Mignon) trying to deal with the reality that she's pregnant to her boyfriend Declan (James Sorensen), claim the storyline is inappropriate for a G-rated show and could lead to more promiscuity and teenage pregnancies.
