Heart Breaking...

Fragile Storm, One of the most emotionally charged short films I have ever seen. Lance Hendriksen gives a heartbreaking performance that everyone can relate to. Directed, written and acted with thought-provoking emotion. A must see for everyone with elderly relatives.

An extremely powerful , emotional short film by writer/director Dawn Fields

This is an extremely powerful and emotional short film. It really begs the question of what would you do in this situation? Director/Writer Dawn Fields did an exceptional job of directing, concentrating on emotions not just from her characters but from her audience and...it worked. A story about an important yet delicate issue you hopefully will never have to encounter. Starring Lance Henriksen.

Exquisite!

This extremely well-written short film is one you will not forget! The acting is exceptional. I always enjoy watching Lance Henriksen. The topic is so timely and important. Although tumultuous and gut-wrenching, it shows a realistic point of view of the topic. This director is to be congratulating for tackling the subject. Her hard work shows, and it certainly paid off in this small gem.

Fragile Storm is a Turbulent Visit into the World of Alzheimer's

Having personally lived through an experience with the devastating illness that is Alzheimer's or dementia, I can say that Fragile Storm is a must-see, even if you or your family are not directed affected. This film, while turbulent, is not melodramatic. Lance Henriksen, Mackenzie Mason, and Jody Jaress create gripping characters, and Dawn Field's directorial skill is shown off vividly in this short.

Best advice . . . watch Fragile Storm and share it with others.

What a great way to show what it is like! Bravo

It is a wonderful short to watch, don't want to spoil it, but the twist in it caught me off guard and made me realize how much the care takers also suffer. Bravo - well done! The scenes totally had me drawn in, I did not expect the ending , and that is what I liked. It is a wonderful and entertaining way to shed light on a subject most don't want to talk about. Both my mom , (passed away) and my mother in law battled with Dementia, Thank You
