Why have people rated this so low due to nudity? You know it's just skin right?!
Huge admiration for David Tait - the courage it must take to bare all to someone as close as his wife is unimaginable. To then carry on sharing his story whilst working for other children - what an incredibly brave man.
I know from experience how childhood trauma can manifest in adulthood, and it's terrifying, horrendous and mind-boggling. If we can just educate kids about sharing and honesty, maybe our future adults won't be as broken as David Tait was.
Talk to your kids. Do it now. There's no shame in being honest and open. I wish I had been.

Perhaps to feel the pain of a child abused, as this movie has clearly accomplished, then more people will become aware of the trauma a child feels throughout their life. Shining a light on how many children are abused and never talk about. If this movie helps just one person through the mental anguish and turn for help then it was well worth it. Just. Heartbreaking.
This is such an important movie. And it was created to make you feel this child's pain and struggle as a young 10 year old. And how desperate you become when you have no one to turn to. The work he now does is a credit to him and his loving wife who helped him through his darkness.

Growing up in South Africa, a young boy encountered sexual abuse and when moving to England has to deal with a pressurised job in the stock market, a new life and a new born baby, with all of the terrors of his childhood to deal with throughout! Much better than the 4.9 rating 8 is more a true reflection in my humble opinion .
Sulphur and White tells the true story of high-flying city trader David Tait. This is the emotional cost and redemption of a broken man. The depiction of life in the turbulent City had a a ring of truth to it, and the horrifying abuse scenes are managed with sensitivity.
