  Fish Tank 2009

  ★★★★½ Watched 06 Jul 2019

  A coming of age story, deeply moving and human. A depiction of a young urban england or what we could call “chav” culture. 
  Great character developpement, this film does a good job in not judging its characters and 
  You can feel a real sense of confinement and being trapped in this world that Mia is trying to escape from, just like a fish in a tank. “Fish Tank”
