kosmasp A big family like this has different kind of characters in it. And while group suffering is one thing, there is also the individual suffering. And the documentary or filmmaker at helm do a good job getting us in the middle of it. It's never easy dealing with the loss of a loved one, especially if you don't know what went on in their head.In this case you won't get always all the answers you want to. It's tough to watch but it's finely edited and you may wonder at times if the filmmaker should have offered some kind of help or stayed objective (the latter being the case as you can imagine). If you can stomache it, watch it, but don't expect anything too flashy or sensational from this movie
jen_australia This production takes you on a very private & intimate journey with a family facing a multitude of demons & hardships. There is so much love within this family and that shines through even throughout their darkest days. What a bunch of courageous people they sure are to share their story with us.
jennystockbridge A touching tribute to a family who have worked together to overcome many difficult times. Vikie and her family are a wonderful loving family who give their time to support those going through difficult times in their lives. The family have not had an easy journey through life, but they pull together and give us hope that we can too.
ty-02325 Well worth the watch. Very sad to watch. Brings back painful memories of my mums suicide and yrs later my cousins. I have mental health issues its hard to cope some days. Well done this family and to Pippa its hard honey but it will get easier to cope. To Vicky you are one hell off a mum.
