I'd had a quick glance at this on Amazon and thought it might be worth watching and was hoping for some excellent acting and gritty drama. The gritty part was there but I didn't find the acting up to much. We follow a young runaway named Joanne and a hardened prostitute Kelly who have to make a sharp exit from London when Kelly's pimp is blamed for his boss's death and has to track the girls down for not keeping a deal with him. There's paedophilia, murder, blood, illegal activity, and everything else in between, and I can't say I enjoyed the film at all. The acting wasn't good enough to bring out the storyline and the storyline was far too depressing to stand alone unless supported by some good acting.
It's hard to believe that Georgia Groome would go on to star in 'Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging' a couple of years later so I suppose she at least had a fairly versatile approach to her acting career.
