MY FERAL HEART
Directed by Jane Gull
Drama | 84m I 2016
A sudden bereavement throws Luke, a fiercely independent young man with Down’s syndrome, into a daunting new environment where he finds unexpected support from his feisty, streetwise carer and a local heir dealing with his own demons. As friendships bloom and long-buried secrets are revealed, Luke verges dangerously close to disaster. My Feral Heart is a beautifully realised, understated character study bolstered by strong performances, distinctive cinematography and a deeply evocative score.
Debut director Jane Gull has crafted a sensitive, poignant and creditably naturalistic drama that lingers in the memory; anchored around Brandon's superb lead performance.
