    A beautiful and powerful short film

    Counting Backwards is a moving, powerful film that takes you on an emotional journey. You can't help but be totally invested in the characters, their laughter, their relationships and their traumatic experiences. The film is beautifully made with a delicate balance throughout, which leaves some scenes to the imagination. It's hard to believe it's only a short film, as it has been written so well that you are gripped from start to finish. Counting Backwards is a unique and special film which could help many that have faced adversity or difficult situations in life. It's a difficult subject matter, that sends out a positive message of love, friendship, forgiveness and facing ones demons.
