Sorry for Your Loss
Shown 9th October 2024 [Wednesday]
Rhiannon Lewis ( Ella Purnell ) is a frustrated young woman. She has a dead-end job, and everyone takes her for granted. All pretty normal stuff, like in Fight Club . However, because this story is female-led everything is interpreted as the fault of men. In all fairness, the story is clearly told from the perspective of a borderline mentally ill person.
Rhiannon's father dies, and everything else goes wrong in her life. She blames a former school classmate, who bullied her fifteen years previously. However, the story would be over too quickly if the bully was the first victim.
