Cruel Summer
Danny, a teenager with autism, escapes the inner city for the beautiful countryside. Little does he know that bitter Nicholas is hunting him, stemming from a lie created by the enamoured and envious Julia and Calvin.
As the three close in on Danny, Nicholas' behaviour becomes increasingly erratic and violent, and Julia and Calvin must decide whether to go through with Nicholas' deadly plan.
Critic Reviews:
- “Beautifully – & elliptically – shot, with all the worst atrocities kept off screen as the camera cuts away from human nature to its more summery, sylvan variety, Cruel Summer is a harrowing idyll of society at its most adolescently self-destructive.” – Projected Figures
