Skunk (2 Stars)

This is the 20th film in the Stuttgart Fantasy Film festival.

I'm standing alone here. There was loud applause when the film ended. Everyone liked it. Everyone except me.

The film is about Liam, a 17-year-old boy who grows up with abusive parents. He's put in a care home, where some of the boys bully him, but as time passes he makes friends.

I have an aversion to films like this. I don't like to see children being abused. I don't like watching the violence in children's homes. I tried to have sympathy with Liam, but he had too many bad traits for me to be able to relate to him.

Ignore my rating and watch it if you're curious. You'll probably like it more than me.
