“Best. Holiday. Evah!” It’s an emphatic, exuberant mantra, belted out like a terrace chant and toasted with shots of toxic novelty alcohol throughout a hedonistic package trip to the party town of Malia in Crete.

For teenage school friends Tara (Mia Mckenna Bruce), Skye (Lara Peake) and Em (Enva Lewis), this trip is a rite of passage: a post-exam celebration that plays out to a soundtrack of air horns, techno and blurry late-night declarations of undying friendship. And for Tara, it may be the opportunity for her to finally divest herself of her virginity. But, as this terrific debut from DoP-turned-director Molly Manning Walker shows, there comes a point at which the riotous, relentless good times stop being fun.
