An inspiring and deeply imaginative way of telling a disturbing and powerful real-life story. Brilliant use of so many visual elements, verbatim voice over and photography. This film made me cry.

Technically stunning but also poetic and evocative. A wonderful thought-provoking piece about memory and experience, deeply personal yet universal in its reach. A wonderful piece of work.
