London to Brighton

Dir Paul Andrew Williams, UK, 85 mins, 2006,16
Starring: Lorraine Stanley, Georgia Groome, Johnny Harris, Alexander Morton

The title refers to a train journey to escape horrific consequences of events. Kelly's pimp, Derek, has assigned her to locate an underage girl for a sinister paedophile gangster, and she finds easy prey in Joanne, a runaway from a violent father. This lean, taut thriller is as bleak as its essential honesty demands, but not entirely without hope.
