well done!!, 19 September 2007
9/10
Author: bdunphy-2 from United States

This is a wonderful film. It is well crafted, beautifully written and sensitively shot. It deals with a topic that is difficult to view.

The treatment of this violent subject is amazingly soft and thoughtful. It brought me to tears in it's simplicity. And I think it is this delicate treatment that is the strength of the piece.

By carefully, tenderly working through the torment of the character and bringing her through to the other side we, as the audience are given a great gift--the gift of hope.

I understand why there is such a groundswell of support for this film. It is a testament to all who have been through any trauma.
