Synopsis | A Mother's Burden (2011)
Decades after the Port Arthur massacre, that photo of Martin Bryant still sends a shiver down the spine. Nowadays, we like to think that his eyes are a little crazy, and that expression is ever so slightly off-kilter. But that's all in hindsight. The fact is, apart from being a bit troubled as a kid and intellectually limited, really, Martin Bryant could be anyone's son. But he just happens to be Carleen Bryant's son, and the burden of that has been devastating for her. Carleen Bryant is tormented by the same questions that trouble us all. What made a seemingly ordinary, if dimwitted, young man, go out and kill 35 people? And have we learned anything from that dreadful day?
