Mouse
The summer of 2002 changes everything for shy high-schooler Minnie in this humorous yet heartbreaking drama from the filmmaking team behind Saint Frances, Alex Thompson and Kelly O’Sullivan.
When a tragic accident tears Minnie from her best friend Callie, Minnie develops an uncomfortable and dependent relationship with Callie’s mum Helen (Sophie Okonedo), causing friction with her own frazzled mother. A remarkable coming-of-age film about grief, queerness and discovering yourself in the darkest times.
“Mouse is a rich, emotionally satisfying and superbly acted bittersweet drama about the bumpy journey of coming to terms with loss.” — Wendy Ide, Screen International
