Herself - Official Trailer | Prime Video
Ойын-сауық
Single-mother Sandra (Clare Dunne) escapes her abusive partner with her two young children, only to find herself trapped in temporary accommodation. After months of struggling, she draws inspiration from one of her daughter’s bedtime stories and hits upon the idea of self-building an affordable home. She finds an architect who provides her with plans and is offered land by Peggy (Harriet Walter), a woman she cleans for. Aido (Conleth Hill), a building contractor, appears willing to help too. But as her past rears its head, in the form of Gary (Ian Lloyd Anderson), her possessive ex, and as bureaucrats fight back against her independent spirit, will Sandra be able to rebuild her life from the ground up?

This film reminds me of my mum and how she found the courage to leave my dad and run away with me and built a life for us. Just me and her ❤️

I can relate. My mum has been my hero since forever and the same thing happened to us, it was me and her and then my little sister against the world. Life is not fair though 😢 I lost her to cancer a year ago, she was only 40 years old 💔 my world stopped making sense.
The main girl in this, Clare was in my class in acting college for three years (weirdly so was the first person she speaks to, Laura. Both of them were always, by far, the most professional actresses in my class. They forced everyone to up their game and I'm not surprised at all Clare has become successful. I still have a letter from her she wrote me when I was in college so its so sweet to see someone so decent and hard-working accomplishing something like this.

I was hooked from the beginning, but when she asked that question...I was floored! I know that question had to have been asked before. It was just quickly and quietly swept under the rug because a woman asked it! SMH!!!! Hopefully more movies like this will begin to make a difference; especially with the additional abuse, that is taking place because of the pandemic.

@@Poleeze1 you sound like someone who has no idea how hard it is to leave someone you have children with and has manipulated and brainwashed you into feeling too small and weak to leave. It’s fear.
The worst part, is the courts put the victim and abuser in one room, exposing them and their plans. The courts forces the abused to expose their plans, enabling the abuser. I know it’s “part of the process” but courts truly do not help in these circumstances. The abuser should NOT be allowed to hear the victims plans to better her life...and the lives of the child(ren) involved. I’ve experienced this. It’s worse because they FORCE you to be vulnerable in front of your abuser, if you win, it angers them and knowing your plans, allows them to further abuse. The courts need to be more sensitive in domestic abuse situations. Great movie. Heartbreaking, but an overall true depiction of manipulation and narcissism. He was never about the children, but punishing her for not allowing his abuse and freeing herself. A must watch, but get your tissues and Xanax ready.

@@jessiboo6012 I was just implying that your anxiety may seriously kick in. I am in no way condoning meds...I actually despise them...however I do have a few Xanax for emergency reasons, as I've had some panic attacks, which I don't wish on my worst enemy, due to some trauma (similar to this movie) which did cause a trigger. Xanax, if taken for "just because" reasons or to get high or assume you need to take on a daily basis is bad....like any and all drugs/prescriptions. If you are having an episode or if relatable movies like these causes a trigger, It's understandable. I wasn't forcing it or encouraging it on anyone, but for those who've experienced this kind of trauma, it may cause triggers. I was just giving a heads up to anyone dealing with this. Nothing more, nothing less xo.

I really liked this movie. It’s basically everything isn’t what it seems.
Good screenplay Good performance
Amazing and powerful
To anyone that has been a victim of abuse I'm sorry. For abuse to be a problem of the scale that it is with the funding that supports it is unacceptable. Women, children and men are all victimized by the courts for the cycle to continue the way it does. Sometimes movies like this help with awareness but too often they do not look at the root cause....a judiciary industry that profits from it's existence.
This really hurts to watch. Nobody deserves to be treated like this.

she needs to cover the birthmark. its too distracting, it makes you realise that its Claire Dunne and not the character. Why would you not just sit in the make up chair for an extra hour, its pure vanity. Im not saying birthmarks shouldnt be seen, of course not, it looks pretty but its too distinctive. it stops the actor inhabiting the role properly imho

You are right. Although not as common, women do abuse men too. And men can definitely get screwed over with the courts. Not the case in my family. My ex brother-in-law is an abusive loser. But I do know this happens. Kids are always the ones that lose in these situations.
