A refreshingly unpreachy and cinematic road movie about a divorced father who kidnaps his daughter, distinguished by two exquisite lead performances. What begins as a despairing escape abroad becomes a peculiar domestic holiday. While the world around them narrows, father and daughter rekindle a relationship they thought was lost. A film about a man who tries to remedy injustice -- a love story, which shows things can turn out well despite terrible beginnings.
