🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a stark parallel between Victorian poverty and modern addiction, using Dickensian archetypes as a springboard to explore a societal underbelly. It relies on a gritty, music-video aesthetic and documentary-like roughness to convey street-level chaos.

What lingers after the credits is not the plot, but the visceral sensation of a world where humanity is the ultimate currency traded for the next fix. The classic tale is stripped of its sentiment, leaving only raw, urban survival. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Jacob Tierney
