Suitability & Warnings
Please note
The subject of domestic violence needs to be addressed. The final feature film shows how an abusive partner can escalate in an insidious way. Every 6 days a woman is killed in Australia by her partner or former partner. The films challenge us all, especially men, to look out for the signs of domestic violence and then do something to prevent it.
