Simmone Howell recommends
Ballad for a Mad Girl (2017)
Vikki Wakefield
"Ballad for a Mad Girl is brilliant, edgy and unsettling. Grace is a tough and sympathetic anti-heroine. I felt her grief and, even when I cursed her curiosity, was compelled to follow her to the story's satisfying, cinematic end.’"
