Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Abbigail Bush what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
imdb-57919 The film shows the dramatic impact that mental illnesses have on our youth
kevinewkeller Out of Sight: Stop the Stigma, Start a Conversation sheds a much needed light on the issues of teen mental illness and suicide. The film features powerful interviews with struggling teens, teachers, and the parents of struggling children. Focusing on the lack of mental health options available for effectively treating mental illness in the US health care system, the film works to remove the stigma surrounding the treatment of mental health issues. The documentary is a touching reminder to treat all people with kindness because you never know what issues they might be facing.
Valerie Wood Out of Sight is an excellent documentary that discusses an important and poorly understood issue. It tells its story largely through interviews with teenagers who have or currently struggle with mental illness and suicidal thoughts. It also includes the stories of adults who have been affected by this issue, sometimes irreversibly by the loss of a child to suicide. Despite the sad subject matter, the tone is ultimately hopeful and leaves the viewer inspired to make changes in their lives to better support their friends or organizations who work in this field. The people behind this film, most of whom were in their teens themselves when production began and who have been working on a shoestring budget, have made something very impressive and everyone should find time to see it.
fodotheriverspirit Out of Sight is a true eye opener to the realities of mental illnesses in teens and young adults. It features many touching first hand accounts of mental illness and seeks to inform the population of whats going on behind the scenes. The documentary is short but does hit home with the points it makes. The crew behind the movie did a good job of taking the stories from a dozen plus people and driving the point of how shunned and hidden away mental illness is in our society. The crew did an amazing job of editing the film and its easy to follow throughout the entirety of the movie. This would be a great film to play in the classroom as well. A true must watch that will change your life.
