"Tide’s End explores the many faces of sexual assault and human trafficking, and how life can shatter for those most affected – the victims. Because #MeToo is more common than we can imagine. As is #ChildrenToo and even #BoysToo. It tears apart our families and neighbourhoods. And wherever there is suffering, there are guardians and helpers who still the relentless pounding to encourage Tide’s End."

Incredibly underrated movie with some of its roots in multilayered films such as Pulp Fiction.
It's rather clever multi viewpoints and clever editing reveals just that bit more info when seeing the story unfold from another characters standpoint, it's always busy and never has a dull moment which saves it from being just another clone and the young and energetic cast inject an urgency into the story.
It's a shame all of them slipped into obscurity shortly afterwards as all showed much talent and potential to have a decent career, that's Hollywood!

In a world without disease, without hunger and without death Scythes are the only ones who are able and granted to keep the population under control.
Two teenagers become a scythe's apprentice and neither if them want the job, but a situation comes about where one of them will die if they don't win against the other.
I really enjoyed this dystopian fiction. The concept was brilliant. The character development subtle yet effective. I was engrossed every step of the way. I cannot wait to read the next installment!
