A Stitch in Time

This wonderful film is about human beings; relationships old and new, ambition and humility, acceptance and love. It's a story about growing up and learning; it's a story about getting older and coping with the changes that brings. It's a story about holding onto your ambitions however far-fetched. It's a story about family and all the forms that can take. The writing is intelligent, the actors are real and relateable ... and likeable; what a terrific Australian film.

I often find myself sliding down in my seat watching cringeworthy Australian movies. NOT this one! So proud of the cast and crew; I promise you'll love this film.

What an incredible film, the emotion, the heart, the compassion, the courage, the journey to forgiveness, the determination, the grit and the personal growth of the characters. So much portrayed and weaved skillfully using cinematography, music scores and dialect interwoven perfectly to create a truly beautiful film. The growth of the the characters within this film is very realistic. I also enjoyed the interaction with the Chinese students and off course the compassion, friendship and relationship between Hamish and Liebe. Liebe shows true courage, determination and forgiveness as she navigates her way towards her achieving her dream. She shows amazing dignity in what could potentially be an undignified circumstance. So heartwarming!! Walked away gratified to have watched such a great film. Would watch it again!!!

This is a charming and enchanting movie. The story is beautifully written and the actors are wonderfully cast. The themes discussed are powerful and heavy and yet the movie will have you grinning as you leave. It follows the highs and lows of relationships, diversity and individual growth. Some of the things that particularly stood out were a refreshingly accurate portrayal of international students and the delightful unexpected friendships and connections! The protagonist is very relatable, though we share very few characteristics. The only locally made indie film that I have recommended to friends and family !!

Wasn't sure what to expect and was pleasantly surprised by the plot. This is a must-see audience pleaser which explores aspects of gender equality, race and ageism.

This movie is definitely well worth seeing and not to be missed. It is an exceptionally moving production which not only made us cry; but laugh.

A truly great piece of Australian filmmaking which brings to light occurrences in our daily lives which are not normally brought to light. It also highlights the plight of students who are great contributors to our economy. And demonstrates how we can certainly make aspirations come true by banding together regardless of age, race or gender.

A skilful piece of filmmaking - an impressive debut!

A great little heartwarming story about an old woman chasing an old dream, worn out relationships, taking advantage of your spouse and never giving up on passion. Also, a case study on difference in class, rich vs working class and how money means nothing if our passion makes us happy. Great storytelling by director Sasha Hadden, overall film was really good, good music, good actors and was very engaging.

The only let down was the picture - camera used was said to be a Panasonic from Panavision? The image looked like a video camera, very digital and very off-putting, it didn't look like a camera being used by legend cinematographer Don McAlpine. Both this and the color grading was not very good. Also whoever designed the poster looks like it was a student? Together with the trailer which also was not edited very well. I know other people felt emotional, but this was the letdown for me, it should have made me cry or feel strong emotions but wasn't quite executed that way. There were moments that should have connected but for some reason they didn't. Overall, this is one of the best indie films to come out of Australia in 2022 and it won the AACTA award for best film.

Well done to everyone.
