CGiii Comment

A mightily powerful film about a subject that has been practically ignored by everyone. A subject that most would admit to not wanting to think about. Learning disabilities and sexuality.

How this develops is testament to the writing. How this is performed is testament to the direction. The final scene will, undoubtedly, be viewed with mixed feeling...but, there is no doubting the immense emotion that is displayed.

A necessary film.
