What We Wished We Could Be

10/10

Powerful

This is a very powerful film, from the script, to the cast, to the music. It is an honest look at the impact of the contaminated blood scandal and the hope and desperation the victims had with the trial medication despite its serious life-changing side effects. It is eye-opening and well worth the watch.

The cast brilliantly portrayed the heartache and desperation and hope that continues to persist in the victims and their loved ones.

I hope this movie continues and brings further light to the contaminated blood scandal and that those involved in the scandal are held accountable for the lives that have been lost and will be forever impacted by it due to their careless behaviour.

Moving and Insightful

An honest and powerful account of the consequences experienced by a young couple due to no fault of their own. I was moved and heartbroken to learn more about the blood scandal. The actors were incredible and portrayed the situation so well. This film demonstrates the true meaning of love and sacrifice. The resilience required to move forward in life whilst unwell and receiving treatment that makes you very unwell is unimaginable. The music was relevant and complemented the story beautifully. Aidan's solo performance is incredible. This story has changed my perception of the truth and trust in others.
