User Reviews

Not the greatest but in its way quietly powerful

This film isn't the best but given the subject it tackles it with calm detachment as we all have lost or know someone how has lost someone to the virus we don't need to be told what it's about and this movie lets the watcher fill in the gaps with there own experiences. The acting is not over the top in fact it's if anything understated but in a good way. I don't buy DVDs any more but I will be making an exception for this movie
