Comment
A pair of scientists (Matthew Goode and Toni Collette) decide to try an experiment by raising their son and two two other children in the opposite way to their genetic makeup to prove nuture against nature. As the experiment progresses cracks appear in the family and their benefactor may not all that he seems to be. This is a curious film that is a mix of social comment and the effects of lying within a family. The highlight of the film is the performance from Toni Collette as the mother who is falling apart under the pressures of the experiment and the affect it is having on her family.
