A slow-burn, masterfully directed and really well acted...worth a watch

It’s a good movie, but it’s really hard to watch (multiple rape scenes and racism). Realistically shows how brutal colonial England was.

Disturbing and visceral. I genuinely cheered for the main character. This is not an easy movie to watch

A powerful, dark, raw, painful and captivating tale. It's as horrifying as it's compelling as it's poignant. It could tear you apart.

Great acting, solid Directing. Great low budget film.

Very compelling story that will keep you engaged throughout. Very brutal and intense but enhances the story instead of being for shock value

In a film full of brutality, the most upsetting thing is the inhumanity of the soldiers. A veneer of respectability hiding depravity.

The shock factor is definitely there. Wish the pacing and writing was a bit tighter. Overall definitely worth a watch, but beware.
