The Whip review carer turns to crime in a heist movie with a conscience
Briefly

This low-budget austerity drama captures the struggles of full-time carer Sadie, who navigates the challenges brought on by government welfare reforms while planning a heist.
Sadie recruits government minister Michael Harrington to her cause, highlighting a twist in the narrative where she seeks to expose the corruption surrounding welfare cuts.
With a plot that shifts from social realism to heist, the film challenges viewers to reflect on the political landscape and the plight of the vulnerable.
Despite its intentions, the film misses an opportunity to deeply explore disability, sidelining Emily, the disabled character, for most of the narrative.
