A very accomplished and delicately crafted film" - Michael Parker (Film Editor - Run Fatboy Run, East is East). "The film has surety and originality, pace and passion...[I was] captivated. Totally transported into that precious, secret bedroom" - Celia Imrie (Actress, - 'Calendar Girls', 'Bridget Jones's Diary'). "A great film, thoroughly absorbing, and one that has a resonance today for our Armed Forces and others deployed in Afghanistan and elsewhere." - Billy King-Harman CBE "Really engaging and the script wonderfully philosophical. It took me into a different space. Good evocation of time and characters - and sexy too!" - Cathie Davey, Publicist ('The Street', 'Five Days') Jon Rowe (jonrowefilm@googlemail.com)
