Face 2 Face

Face2Face is the documentary by Hollywood Director Katherine Brooks. It is a travelogue of a woman who after major Surgery, Literally was isolated from actual contact, while surrounded on the internet with 5000 followers battled bouts of Depressionand eventually attempted Suicide. the survival triggered a desire to re-connect with people..the first 50 who agreed to be filmed were picked, routes made and the Doc was off.

The individuals all have stories of loss. fear, isolation and ultimately redemption. The film shows the Journey taken by so many behind closed doors. The Director discloses her personal tragedies and tries to find the answers to her questions about her values, her art, and her future without xanax.

I enjoyed the journey and felt it gave a real face to mental illness and the need to de-stigmatize the universal need for help. In the negative side we meet only a few of the 50 and i feel poorer for that.

Overall very good Documentary, perfect for a Sunday afternoon.

This film has the heart and soul of Kat Brooks right out there for all to see . In the process of her 11000+ mile trip across America to come Face2Face with some of her online friends the stories she shares touch our hearts and souls. She unfolds her difficult heart wrenching past. I cried and found parts of myself there as well. This is a film that will change everyone who sees it for the better as it reminds us we're all more alike than different. We are never alone. She discusses her near successful attempt at ending her own life. This was a very brave disclosure which she made despite advise to the contrary by her manager and lawyer. She once again proves to her fanbase that she will always be herself, honest and true. Some of the friends she meets are going through times of stress and turmoil, Kats ability to empathsize is a gift they all embrace.

6 months ago I discovered Director Katherine Brooks and her film, Face 2 Face, on Twitter. At that time I was not an active part of society and hadn't been years. I was battling anxiety and depression, and I was losing the battle. After seeing Face 2 Face I was inspired to get off of my couch, conquer my demons and begin to truly live my life. I am eternally grateful to Katherine for her willingness to openly share her experiences with us in Face 2 Face. If you have ever felt alone, unloved, under-appreciated or just want to be inspired you must watch this film – you will not be disappointed and you will understand why Face 2 Face is not just a movie, it is a movement!

Face 2 Face is something raw and real. Director Katherine Brooks throws the Hollywood rule book out of the window and makes a true meaningful movie. You will see things that will make you smile, you will see things that make you laugh, you will even see things that make you question if you are truly living your life. There is no sugar coating anything in this film. There is no script, no cue cards. Just people and a camera. The movie discusses problems society is to afraid to bring up. I recommend everyone check out this movie. You will laugh, and you will cry. Katherine Brooks does not hold back and because of that something wonderful was put out there. I've never seen anything like Face 2 Face before. I can't praise it enough. Go see it!!!
