Six Years Gone

If you are after a dark and gritty film full of emotion and heart then look no further than Six Years Gone.

This emotional rollercoaster speaks straight to the heart of parents, focusing on a subject nobody would ever wish to experience. The film takes you away on a dark trip encompassing the worst fears of parents and carers. A missing child.

The acting performance of the main character pulls you in and carries you to the depths of your nightmares. You find yourself fighting with her along the way are left with no choice but to feel her despair and helplessness. And it hurts!

The thoughtfully scripted and cleverly filmed movie is a fantastic example of movie making masterclass on a shoe-string.

Films do not need a big budget to send a big message or leave a lasting impression - and Six Years Gone does exactly that.

I started to watch this, not sure if I would finish it from the subject matter, but the opening just drew me in. So powerful. I felt for the characters and the acting was great, and it's a super important subject so Kudos to the filmmaker for tackling it. Really well told story with complex layers. Definitely recommend.

I have to start off by saying the deadly combo or acting, cinematography and story are top notch. The film can be brutal at times, but that keeps with its theme. Emotionally draining (in a great way) and a true dive into the madness a parent who has lost a child (or had one missing) must feel. All around well done!

This film takes us on an intimate journey of this woman's life due to the disappearance of her child. Veronica Jean Trickett, Carrie, does a great job. Especially look for 17 year old Chloe, played by Lyra Treglown, who in her one scene is unforgettable.

I don't want to reveal any spoilers, but this one involves the loss of a child to the unknown. It's well done, with a strong infusion of anxiety and sympathy for the main character. The sense of dread that comes from the mother's plight is palpable, and this is made clear by good acting and directing. As a parent, "Six Years Gone" definitely got to me.
