There is a specific, suffocating horror to being a teenager. Now, imagine that horror compounded by realizing you are gay while trapped in a aggressively mundane, seaside caravan park with your dysfunctional family for a week. That is the masterful, uncomfortable, and surprisingly tender territory staked out by Marley Morrison’s debut feature, Sweetheart .

Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5)

This is for anyone who was an angry, awkward teenager. For anyone who felt like a monster until someone saw them differently. It is a small film with a massive heart, hidden under a hoodie and a scowl.
