Great work. not overloaded but the message is clear.
a touching short film of life brilliant well done
Well done Talitha, a very true message about the cost of domestic violence, the neglected children.
All the best for your future, you are very courageous and talented to produce this movie.
Brilliant! Fantastic cast, fantastic script and the characters engage what really is the “everyday life of families” who are victims to alcohol and drugs. This short film really captures the reality of how overlooked the children are, and it’s sad that for some children out there, this life is a normality for them. Well done Talitha!!
Congratulations Talitha. Great film-making and a really strong story!
FANTASTIC!!!..
Go Girl! Great message!
Well done in creating awareness and discussion around such an important topic, you should be proud!
I watch this everyday…a timely reminder of the “hidden” issues in our society.
Spine tingling, goose bump material.
Well done Talitha, Jack, Bianca, Lewis, Aunty Ev, Errol and Victoria!!
Tremendous effort with a REAL story.
This is fantastic, heart breaking for the little boy, but unfortunately it is so true of society today. Everyone should watch, great work
well done, very strong message, bringing about awareness of issues that we need to change, education is vital. Great work
Powerful images that tug at the hearstrings with dialouge that encompasses so many issues
that are being faced daily.
This is amazing! Keep up your hobby of film. You have a real talent for it!
Well done Talitha, Aunty ev, Lewis, Bianca, Erol and Jack on making such a fantastic short film on the subject of real life concerning drugs and alcohol. the message in ur short film should be broadcast on tv as it is so very true as to the effects of what happens especialy with the children of today in these situations….great job to all of you u all should be so very proud……
