Handsome and carefree David is enjoying a laid-back holiday at the beach with eternally upbeat boyfriend Jim.

| "Sophie Quinton dazzles as the naïve Avril and the film has a tender confidence in exploring the emotions of someone learning to love. Quietly magical, 'Avril' is a low-key wonder" DVD Review |
