GOOD ONE (15) 1h 29m

Dir: India Donaldson

Cast: Lily Collias, Sumaya Bouhbal, Valentine Black

Genre: Drama

With its shades of Kelly Reichardt, India Donaldson’s father-daughter hiking drama is an accomplished and insightful directorial debut. Before she heads to college, 17-year-old Sam embarks on a bonding camping trip to the Catskills with her father Chris and his oldest friend Matt. When Matt’s son refuses to accompany him on the morning of the trip, Sam finds herself dealing with the two oblivious and exasperating dads alone. As a result, her perspective on the lives of adults gradually starts to shift. Donaldson’s tight script entertains with its witty insights – particularly some hilarious bickering between Chris and Matt. It also subtly explores ideas around gender and generational power dynamics, which become increasingly apparent as the trip progresses. Lily Collias delivers an impressive breakout performance as Sam, her eyes revealing so much of what’s unfolding in this perceptive teenage girl’s head and heart.

Bar opens from 7pm serving our fabulous cocktails, fine wines and craft beers, as well as savoury and sweet snacks.
