    Anyone seen this? It's available to stream, so I am going to give it a watch.

    It has received good reviews in general. Just curious as to anyone else's opinions.

    I watched it on streaming the other day and posted about it in the 'what have you watched recently?' thread. I've copied my post from there below:

    Femme stars Nathan Stewart-Jarrett (aka Curtis the time-traveller from Misfits) and George Mackay in a queer revenge thriller that is much stronger than its trailer suggests, by being much more interested in getting under the skin of both Jules, a gay man and drag queen who is brutally assaulted at the start of the film, and Preston, Jules' attacker. Both characters are given more than enough depth to avoid simplistic "victim/attacker" designations, and I found it interesting that in both cases we see how their immediate social group imposes constraints on aspects of their identities that they want to explore.
