I have no problem with the premise of this film as it is always touching to see young love develop in difficult circumstances (e.g. Same sex relationship at college/school), and I realise the budget was low, however it was rather too slow to develop (particularly for first 30 minutes) and should have introduced more character development and back story.
I agree with others that the age of the actors was a bit old to be playing 18-year-olds although this was not a showstopper. The cinematography and audio were both good for a low budget film as were the locations. The chemistry between the two leads was excellent. The dialogue in places was a bit unnatural. Otherwise pretty good and I enjoyed it.
Plot summary
An English girl has her life uprooted by her mom for her last year of High School. As if it wasn't hard enough leaving behind what is familiar, this small American town holds past memories for her as she spent years there as a child. Although, the hazy recollections and past history are only a small piece in the uncertainty of teenagehood.

Rather slow to develop
Love this
Such an emotional film. The awkward tension between the main characters (Tyler and Rose) is so well portrayed by both Alexandra Swarens and Emma Maddock. They seem to have a real chemistry much the same as that displayed in the LA WebSeries.
There is as much to take away from the silent moments as those with dialogue. Watching the relationship develop is full of wonderful heartfelt moments as they initially struggle to express themselves, with the attraction always being evident (more so from Tyler) increasing as they get to know each other.
A big fan of City of Trees also, another Alexandra Swarens movie. I really want to see more.
