I saw an early screening of this and felt moved to say the film is an amalgam of a confessional diary, poignant drama and philosophical debate. At times a little self indulgent, it still captivates the audience with universal questions on pain, suffering and God. Director Dan Roemer has successfully taken a harrowing real life event and built enough of a narrative around it to MAKE the audience think about some very uncomfortable subjects.
For this, I believe it is more art in the true sense of the word, than a movie that you would casually watch. The characters/actors are real enough for us to see how desperation has been racked upon them by past grief.
If I could sum it up it'd be a cross between "My Dinner with Andre" and "The King of Tides". Intensly personal, unashamedly honest, and very thought provoking.
Congrats Mr. Roemer. Though it's not easy to swallow, it's nonetheless a very gripping story that pulls the audience in.
