It's a lovely film that's very well written and acted. I'd never heard of it before and randomly picked it from the list on one of my streaming services. Some of the minor characters were sketchy and unbelievable but the main characters, especially the little girl were great. It is a very Australian film in every way, which is also a good thing.

The main theme of the imaginary friends reminded me a little bit, quite randomly, of Craig Gillespie's "Lars and the Real Girl". Unlike that Ryan Gosling flick however this film is much more emotional rather than comedy/emotional. I don't normally cry at films, very, very rarely, but this one got me close.
