\u201cCinematically, the film represents Justine with breathtaking delicacy and sets a high ethical bar that challenges future filmmakers to rise to the same level of awareness and respect when documenting the lives of disabled individuals.\u201d<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

“The film had an enormous effect on me. The stillness of the camera like a series of photographs incites us into Justine’s life.”<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The film “is for Justine\u2019s family, for the documentarian\u2019s theorisation of research ethics in practice and for an audience who need to see alternative faces in documentary films.” <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
