Submarine (2010)

Comedy-drama about Oliver Tate, a 15-year-old boy (played by Craig Roberts), his life at home and school, and his relationship with his classmate Jordana (Yasmin Paige). In parallel, the film examines his parents’ failing marriage and his mother’s relationship with “mystic” Graham. 

It’s quirky and unusual. Some of the narrative is handled in a slightly tricksy manner, but it works because it’s from Oliver’s perspective. 

There’s a huge emotional range. It’s funny and sad. It’s realist and also fantastic. Not really like anything else I've seen.
