Unadulterated misery which stands as the perfect indictment of the kind of no hope films financed by Film Four International and British Screen. In deepest East Anglia, American F-111 jets take off and land in the distance; teenage Charlotte Chatton has a Top Gun poster on her bedroom wall and has sex in a field with a local yokel; stuck up farmer Alan Howard observes through his telescope. Her dad loses his job and commits suicide, everyone has a long face and theres lots of big pauses for thought which are supposed to mean something but dont.
