The Harvest

I've watched this film three times now and I'm still trying to figure out what the hell it was about. Too many film makers believe that the rules that apply to feature-length movies can be abandoned when it comes to making shorts. This film doesn't entertain and if it has a point to make it is extremely well hidden. As for the performances - can anyone tell me what part of the world Kate Dickie's character is supposed to be from? At times she sounds Ukrainian then, at others, Orcadian. Kate is without doubt a fine actress as she showed in Red Road but it has to be said that the writers and director of this rubbish did her no favours whatsoever.
