Prioritize:
A German teen thriller set on a moody, somewhat empty island that's actually its biggest draw. The film might be a bit of a mess with moments where logic seems to have taken a break, but the presence of Alice Dwyer and Nicole Mercedes Müller makes it much more watchable. The ending grabbed my attention just enough to bump it up to three stars. It’s not groundbreaking, but it’s a decent watch if you’re in the mood for something laid-back.
