Though successful, actress Thea Barfoed began a downward spiral in her struggle with fortune and fame which took years of recovery. Now, having just finished rehab, she faces a new challenge-- Alcoholism has cost her the custody of her two sons, but Thea will do anything to have them back.
When an actress gives herself as wholly as Ms. Steen does here, a filmmaker should return the favor with a comparable level of craft and commitment, which is largely absent from this movie.
The simple but affecting film begins a weeklong award-qualifying run Friday before opening in stateside art houses Jan. 21, and is worth a look for its gutsy and commanding central performance.
