What an absolutely brilliant documentary style film. The visuals, the narrator speaking the words written in the journals that the deceased left behind, the interviews with family members, mental health Doctors and people closely related toWhat an absolutely brilliant documentary style film. The visuals, the narrator speaking the words written in the journals that the deceased left behind, the interviews with family members, mental health Doctors and people closely related to the discovery of her corpse ... I'm just in awe at how well so many facets of the story was portrayed. So many different perspectives of how this woman, suffering from mental illness, weaved throughout their lives and how helpless they all were to prevent her demise from occurring. People often speak of mental illness and some of the harm that is done to others or themselves as,"evil" which is a huge oversimplification of something that plagues all of humanity in very personal ways. This film does an amazing credit and shines a spotlight on the complexity and the very human face of mental illness.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A very compelling documentary film, but halfway through I was very disappointed with the direction it was taking, blaming her tragedy on her lack of insight and a system that failed her because they let her go free. People can recover from psychoses like schizophrenia, many in fact have, and when they do, they often credit someone who believed in them and gave them hope and a safe place to recover. Sadly this was something she was desperately yearning for, but could never find. The system did fail her, not because they didn't force her to accept their stigmatizing label, a label that's controversial and one that's been dropped in several countries, but because they didn't offer her a safe place and an safe alternative that could help her heal.… Expand
