True Things
Ruth Wilson is at her best in this compelling drama about a lonely woman whose life is changed by Tom Burke, the dangerous stranger who offers something different.
Director: Harry Wootliff
Overview
Ruth Wilson gives a career-best performance as Kate, a lonely woman bored by the tedium of her job and deflated by the dating scene. She craves something more, something like the dangerous stranger (Tom Burke) whose sudden appearance jolts her life in a different direction.
Having detailed the heartaches and complexities of love in her acclaimed debut Only You, director Harry Wootliff’s second feature ventures into darker territory, deftly exploring the fine line between infatuation and obsession, and the destructive dynamics of a toxic relationship.
