★★★☆☆ Sometimes it's the most quiet, unassuming sorts of films that shed light onto the darkest of topics. The modern independent film is fertile land to sow these sorts of stories, the ones that tend to sneak up on the viewer. In High Tide (2015), the plot follows a mother and son on a Linklater-esque 'one day journey' across the Gower coastline of South Wales. As they move through the day as well as the land, old wounds are cut afresh, forcing the pair to find a way to stanch the flow of repressed turmoil as quickly as possible so that they may move on towards redemption. Bethan (Melanie Walters) and her son Josh (Sam Davies) have been cut adrift from each other.
