My husband and I buried our first baby at 15 months old after a heart operation. We are still married 36 years later, but never recaptured our early blissful times.
So Sorry to hear of your loss, but lovely to hear your still married 36 years later. Thankyou for sharing your story and for watching our film. We really appreciate it. Sending all our love!
So happy that you still together. 80% of couples who lose a child divorce (including my brother and sister in law). However, I know that it is possible to grieve together… I don’t think most people know how to do that. God Bless both of you
Even though not every word was clear, every glance, flashback and facial expression told the story. Although incomplete, I somehow understood everything that happened. Even the part where they made a point to not know for sure where they were going, they knew. I did too. Bravo! This was story telling at it's finest.
I’m a gruff 65 year old single guy. I’m compassionate but usually my outer demeanour doesn’t change. By the time I figured out what had happened and why the estrangement, I was feeling deeply moved and the tears are still rolling down my cheeks. I never lost a child, but I’m still grieving the loss of the relationship. This makes it fresh. I guess I am empathetic toward other people going through difficulties and suffering in their relationships. Was rooting for them to put aside the anger and distance and cling together. The bond between a woman and a man should be the best thing in their lives aside from children. I wanted them to draw close in their pain. I got the ending I hoped for. Tears of happiness at the end. I hate separation and breakup, even if I’m just an observer. Thank you for this beautiful but heart wrenching little film. ❤
Retired steamfitter , 45 years , 66 years old now and too had a hard time with this short . It’s an inconceivable loss and even though I’ve suffered through more than my fair share of incredibly painful losses , I’ve never lost a child . I hope everyone can find the peace in their lives that we all so desperately need , myself included .
Not only was that a well made and beautifully shot (and told) short film, but it gets extra points as I'm a keen walker and I love to go walking/hiking in nature and that place looks mint! :P
Thanks so much Steve :) We appreciate it! & Yes it's an amazing hike. It's called Ben A'an in the highlands of Scotland :) Only an hour walk up to the top. highly recommend
@natureboy tom , It's not American movie, it is Scottish. Or at least as far as I know, it is only in Scotland that the word "loch" is used for "lake".
This was not what I was expecting. It was way better! I cried at 14 minutes in and then preceded to cry the rest of it. This is not something I went through, but wow, I felt it in my soul. To the two actors, BRAVO. I was hooked and believed you were together. Best best acting. Thank you! I'm touched. I love it!
So I'm thinking......who the hell would go on a hike with their ex? But I decided to watch it anyway. By the 14 minute I am crying my eyes out! What a beautifully sad story told in a painfully hopeful way. Great job, powerful and emotional!
i was gonna say.... " someone who truly loved the other b4 they became exes." but idh to say that cause by your comment i see you answered your own question cause you watched it all the way through.
@JimE..The story is completely evident without a word of dialogue. Even with the bouncing back and forth between past and present. I won’t explain it to you. Rewatch it with your ears closed and your mind open..or don’t..it might be an idea you’re too insensitive to grasp anyway.
My older sister's first son died in her womb 30-yrs-ago. She still thinks of him, she went on to have two more sons but I always remember my first nephew Jacob. The loss of his life shaped who she became, I am glad she is at peace with the incident.
A child can test any relationship, a child with an illness becomes a couples every minute,the loss of a child is devastating and can have a devastating effect on a couple.... the chasm is impossible to fill.... but a love that was there can be re ignited..... given time.
* Life-long marriages leave a trail of tough, and troubling life experiences. It's the joy of commitment, lifting each other up, and counting blessings that reveal its rewards.
@@theprousteffect9717 Many reasons that would be difficult to put into words. Pain is subjective and during a traumatic event in life, people lose perspective of how it relates to someone else. Each individual deals with pain differently and no two people feel the same way even though both experience the same thing.
Please...SUBTITLES!!! Amazing acting and story---but the WORST AUDIO!!!!!! I hope that some good samaritan explained to me the basic outlines of the story to check what I got
I cried in the first couple of minutes, the emotions, the gestures, it triggered many things. I loved this mini clip, it drew much energy within-out. I haven't always been in touch with my emotions, i used to be scared to show who i once was. Now i am alone, after such memories myself, and can relate to many things in this video. Beautifully Created, thanks xx
This is great. It hits really close to home. They portrayed that type of loss very well. I unfortunately know it too well. This is a very interesting treatment of loss.
Wow. Some things you just don't see coming. What a beautiful work of art. A genuine jewel. Not a single wrong note. Every brushstroke in its right place. Heartfelt thanks to everyone who created this.
Nah, he's not Bear Grylls. But neither is Bear Grylls, who says he spends his time in the Great Outdoors, but actually stays in hotel rooms. Total phony. Great film, here, though.
Life & Emotion ......as calm and as turbulent a River .........Loss is a 'test', and each one of us deals with it differently ......it can be and for some, it is a most defining journey.........I hope you all can find your calm after the storm, for it is never an easy clear path. Stay Safe 🧡
That was so well written, and the two phases of past and present seamlessly woven together. Really wasn't expecting that, the emotion. Emotionally powerful and beautiful at the same time; and the ending was just like sun rising again. Thank you.
I loved it I wish it was a full film would be such a great romance flick with fresh new faces beautiful acting was super beautiful thank you so much for the short tear jerker
Ben died even before he was 10. Very sorry had to let it out. Great short. It's just that the accent and poor audio in few places (especially the first quarter of the short and last scene) made it hard to understand
It is a perfect reflection of so many real-life with the exception of positives at the end. Most usually can't past the loss of a child. They usually end their relationship by the time they need each other most. Nice movie, actors were exceptional!
I'm in tears 😭 after seeing & understanding it. Very beautifully made & directing. It's very difficult thing for Parents to get together after a tragic loss of a Child.
I remember driving home late at night, my wife seated quietly in the passenger seat. Our marriage had failed some years before but we still lived together, not in the same bed but in the same building. I remember how I felt getting close to what had been home for quite a few years with my wife. I remember that feeling of dread and emotional pain, knowing we were about to go back into that place where we lived alone, in our own little worlds, not really being married anymore, not having any feelings of endearment or passion for each other. What a painful sorrowful time, something that comes before the divorce.
At 20:20 I hear: HE: It was never an enlightment, was it? Pretty dark She: Her Dark. Nothing is a nightmare. He: It was you What are they actually saying?
Understandable but would have been so much better with subtitles/captions ❣️lots of love n blessings to all those who have been through this terrible loss 👍🏻the best way is to have another baby asap or to get a pet dog ❣️
I don't recall a movie where the child has died & the coupe, the marriage, the relationship survives & are able to get past it, where their is forgiveness of themselves as well as the other. Never having ever had anything approaching the light from that distant galaxy resembling a genuine connection in any kind of relationship, of course I have never had a child nor am I ever likely to. But I wonder if that kind of forgiveness & surrender of the things we can not change, truly ever occurs in real life between a man & a woman or between anyone.
Ouch. Extremely personal subject matter to portray and personal for me. I was expecting both to go their separate ways. I'm glad they both worked through the loss together. I don't think there's any other way. No... I know there isn't.
No me gusta tener una relación con un hombre que tenga los mismos pasatiempos que yo, porque si tenemos algún problema no quiero perder la única oportunidad que me gusta para sentirme libre y optimista. 🌸
My husband and I buried our first baby at 15 months old after a heart operation. We are still married 36 years later, but never recaptured our early blissful times.

Who else could we adequately grieve with but our partner who helped create such a beautiful living creature? Such a beautiful film
Too bad about the audio, can't make out words alot of the time :(
Sweet and sad from what I could tell
@natureboy tom , It's not American movie, it is Scottish. Or at least as far as I know, it is only in Scotland that the word "loch" is used for "lake".

It takes time, years, to finally make peace with it.

* Life-long marriages leave a trail of tough, and troubling life experiences. It's the joy of commitment, lifting each other up, and counting blessings that reveal its rewards.
It always feels good when a couple can get back together after such a tragedy.
Why would a tragedy lead people to break up?

I can barely understand what they are saying. English subtitles would have been great. Ugh 😩
I did the Northern Camino in 2015 after a great loss and it made me strong Emotionally mentally and physically
Love ,love it! Felt like I took the journey with them...and mostly glad that they found their way to begin to heal ...together!
I had a hunch of what this was about but INCREDIBLE acting! Loved it. So moving.
Thanks so much Nat, we appreciate it :)

Lovely. Would have liked subs, though. Couldn't understand half of what the girl was saying.
Ben died even before he was 10.
Very sorry had to let it out.
Great short. It's just that the accent and poor audio in few places (especially the first quarter of the short and last scene) made it hard to understand

Again, subtitles would have been helpful. These guys are not always easy to understand.

Sometimes you need to confront the past, no matter how painful it is, in order to move forward.

What are they actually saying?
So beautifully - sensitively dun and so painful 😖💜
Masterpiece, wow
