Destressed

I was blown away by this film. It told many different stories with a common thread. It made me laugh and cry, it gave me hope and opened my eyes to the big picture. I really think this film will help people deal with stress. I liked the fact that not one of the people interviewed said "poor me, look how bad my life is". No matter what story was told, and what blow life had dealt them, everyone was positive and smiling. I always say that's why the windshield is huge and the rear view mirror is small. What is in front of you is a lot more important than whats behind you. Fill your head with positive thoughts and there wont be room for negative ones. We all have hope and a future! Great movie. don't miss it.

Film-maker Garry Pastore and his team brings an great inspiring docudramedy to the big screen. The baseline of the movie promise us to follow one man journey for sanity in an insane world and it gave me much more than that. Destressed could be read as the story of Garry Pastore, through film. Garry opens his heart and soul right from the beginning with very powerful opening scenes and takes you into his world and the cause of his stress. What follows is a genuine personal journey in time and distance and brilliant mosaic of clips, great music, images and moments chosen with masterly flair, and accompanied by Pastore own gentle, pleasant voice-over.

This is such a rich, generous and inspiring documentary with mission to teach the world how to combat stress. I laughed, I cried and experience a broad range of emotions and it took me quite some time to come back to real world. And the most important thing that it made me think about my stress level and what effect it has on other people. So "Destressed" already inspired me to change some small things at home and work. More people should see it.

Garry Pastore has made one remarkable film which has a message that will stay with me for a very long time. He takes us on a journey to find his Zen and what he encounters along the way will make you laugh and cry. My wife was so taken by this film and it could not have come along at a better time....she too is over stressed and the message that Garry delivers really put things into perspective for her. After viewing the movie we both looked at each other with open mouths while wiping away tears of both joy and hope. I'm sure that almost every single one of us can learn something from this film....who does not have stress in todays world? It took a man like Garry Pastore to bring this to our attention and to show us what can happen if we do not do something to fix this problem. If you have the opportunity to see this film please do so....run and don't walk to the theater!!! I strongly advise anyone and everyone to go and see this fantastic movie! Bravo to Mr. Pastore for making this and hopefully there will be more like this to come! Rick Verso
