FOCUS: IRELAND AND THE UNITED KINGDOM • Andrea Arnold is one of Britain's strongest cinematic voices. Her debut, Red Road, won the Jury Prize at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival; this year, her second feature, Fish Tank, won the same prize. It's a compelling, unflinching look at the gritty world of 15-year-old Mia, a wannabe dancer living in a housing project in England's Essex with her young single mother, little sister and dog. Mom's new boyfriend, Connor (played by the handsome Michael Fassbender), at first looks to be the positive father figure who will pull the bickering family together, but his undeniable sexual chemistry with Mia soon moves their relationship into explosive territory. Arnold's honest, taut storytelling and beautifully composed sense of landscape—both external and internal—make engaging cinema. But it's the performances Arnold inspires, particularly from incredible newcomer Katie Jarvis as Mia, that make this mesmerizing reflection on teenage sexuality, betrayal and revenge so riveting. —Lily Buchanan
