She added: 'Well, it's got some serious sad underlined themes but at the end of the day it's sort of a mystery adventure for young adults.
'So a girl has lost her best friend to suicide a year earlier, and she just can't accept it, so she comes to the island where the girl killed herself and that girl is my daughter.
'So everybody apart from me is a young adult in it, it's a very young adult film, but I'm sort of the grown-up in it and all of the kids come back to commemorate their friend.
'Then this girl just can't accept that she would do what she did and starts to look for answers, and as she looks for answers, she uncovers secrets, lies, betrayals, and a deep dark web.'
Elsewhere in the show, Joe revealed he is set to go to the BAFTAS as Elizabeth the first and proceeded to ask Elizabeth for any tips.
He said: 'So Sunday I'm going to the BAFTAS apparently as Elizabeth the First, do you have any tips for me about this big sort of fashion statement?
Joe then showed the audience a throwback snap of Elizabeth wearing a stunning black gown before adding: 'Cause you went to four weddings and a funeral premiere in that amazing dress.'
To which Elizabeth smiled and responded with: 'Yes, well have you been practicing your poses? do you have a pose?'

The comedian then stood up and comically started to show Elizabeth several of his 'serious' poses which made the audience burst into a fit of laughter.
Elizabeth laughed before saying, 'Quite sexy'.
She then gave Joe her best advice for when it comes to posing at any star-studded event.
She said: 'It's quite important that you eyeball each and every lens so that everybody gets a picture of you looking so beautiful, otherwise you're just in a panic, you have to eyeball each one.
'This was taught to me by a huge photographer when I started, he was quite old by then, about to retire but he said this is something that I teach all the girls to do, because a lot of people when they are photographed tense their mouths, you have to relax the lips and blow.
'Because it makes them look puffy and sexy.'
Joe then tried Elizabeth's posing trick before revealing that Pauline from LateNightAunties in the audience had decided to channel Elizabeth's iconic look.
He said: 'You looked amazing in that dress, I don't think anybody could of topped that although Pauline from latenightaunties is having a go.
Pauline then shot up out of her seat to show off her dupe version of Elizabeth's dress which boasted staples on the side.
The camera then panned to Elizabeth's shocked face and she screamed 'omg' before giving Pauline a round of applause.
Strictly Confidential follows Mia, played by CBBC star Georgia Lock, as she is drawn into a 'world of sex, duplicity and betrayal' while trying to uncover the mystery surrounding her best friend Rebecca's death near her family home in the Caribbean.
Much ado has been made over Damian directing Elizabeth in her lesbian sex scenes with co-star Pear who, at age 28, is is 30 years younger than her.
In Damian's directorial debut, Elizabeth plays a mother called Lily who welcomes her daughter's friends to her Caribbean estate the year after the mysterious deaths of her daughter and her husband.
A number of secrets become known during the trip, including Lily's love affair with her daughter's female friend.
But the model has defended his decision to direct his mother in the film's racier moments, revealing they didn't even have an intimacy co-ordinator on set.
He insisted that while it may appear 'strange' to regular people, for those who have grown up in the industry as celebrity offspring, it is routine.
Liz has explained how she had 'always promised' Damian she would star in his first film after he 'chased her around' making films in his childhood.
She told The Telegraph: 'People have got their knickers in a twist about it a bit. But actually for us it wasn’t a big deal at all, just one of the seven scenes we were shooting on that day.
'It seemed like a very natural progression of the relationship we’d had. Being a single mother of a single child has meant by default that we have spent quite a great deal of time together, even though he was at boarding school for 10 years.’
Speaking to The Sunday Times about filming his mother's racy scenes, Damian admitted: 'I hate to say that it felt totally normal. I don't know what that says about us.'
