Our take

The story of an unconventional family set-up quirkily plays out on London’s picturesque canals. Spanish director Carlos Marques-Marcet reunites the two stars of 10,000km, alongside real-life mother-daughter duo Geraldine and Oona Chaplin, for this lesbian slice-of-life drama about starting a family.
