By NeptuneTHE QUIET GIRL ***1/2 (vo Gaelic)Why is it that some children have to suffer for the problems and hangups of their incompetent, often cruel parents? Like the nine-year-old Cait, this is a quiet film by Colm Bairead which will move you as it moves the girl to a realisation of better possibilities in the cold life she has had until now. Quite an accomplishment for a first feature film by Swiss director, Steven Michael Hayes. Forget it, with its terrible scenario – you won’t even care as it progresses…99 MOONS (vo Swiss German)A Swiss film trying hard to be wildly sensual and inventive about two completely different people coming together sexually, and maybe emotionally. Superb **** Very Good *** Good ** Mediocre * Miserable – no starsBy NeptuneNeptune Ravar Ingwersen reviews film extensively for publications in Switzerland.
