Reviews

‘An emotional whirlwind, masterfully articulated. Nobody does modern agony and ecstasy better than Trier.’
★★★★★
Hannah Strong, Little White Lies

‘Trier has taken on one of the most difficult genres imaginable, the romantic drama, and combined it with another very tricky style – the coming-of-ager – to craft something gloriously sweet and beguiling.’
★★★★★
Robbie Collins, The Telegraph
