This is the first review I've ever written on anything TV related and I really felt compelled to do so this time. This is a wonderfully made documentary. Like a previous reviewer pointed out - it really makes you feel for both parties; of course for the victim and her family, and also those with mental illness. I think the victim and the family showed great humility in their acceptance of Sean's apology. For Sean, I'm glad he was able to get some freedom back, as he comes across as a genuinely lovely and honest bloke who was just struck by an awful impulse as a result of his illness. All the best to both parties involved. And finally a well done to the producers of this doc - amazing work!

An interesting documentary from the point of view of both the mentally ill perpetrator and the victim and her family, recovery and forgiveness.

I like the way this was made though I was confused a bit about time. Was Sean re-enacting when it showed him going on and off the sidewalk? But other than that it's a touching look at victims, both Sean who is a victim of the disease in his brain, and the. Bouvier family, whose lives changed purely by chance that day.

This movie does a great job at pulling at your emotions in both directions. You feel for the victim of Sean's crime, but also feel for Sean who was so severely sick and you want to see him do well in his recovery. A must watch.

This is a 98 minute long documentary that is directed by John Kastner, produced by the National Film Board of Canada. The film explores the issue of mental illness in relation to the criminal act committed by Sean Clifton. It explores the violent altercation that included him stabbing a woman multiple times at a Wal-Mart. The film explores the basic criminal process that occurred that led to Clifton being declared not criminally responsible, being sent to a mental hospital and dealing with his life after that. In exploring this story, it is important to note that only Sean and his roommates stories are focused on. While it is necessary to note that this is a film about mentally ill individuals, it should not be considered to encompass all forms of mental illness nor all all individuals. Having just watched the film, it is important to identify that the story is written to be heartwarming, in that it follows Sean's rehabilitation and reintegration and how mental illness for him is controllable. The insertion of comedic lines by the various individuals in the film allow for some relief from the truly horrific actions that did occur. The victim, and her family represent the opposing view. It is plain to see that they are still affected by the violence that occurred, as they should be, and because of this they present an alternate view to the filmmaker's and Sean and the hospital staff. The differing viewpoints and the chronological story telling allow for a deeper look at the impact that mental illness can have on an individual, allowing them to be overtaken by "another" force that they cannot control. It seems to detract from the current Canadian governments ideas surrounding mental health, which are incarceration rather than rehabilitation, and decreased funding for mental health asylums. This documentary does not explore the deeper social issues that are simply mentioned (his failure with women, homeless with mental health issues benefiting from entering the criminal system). On the whole, it was definitely watchable, with adequate intellectual stimulation and entertainment that has a message that it aims to present, and would definitely be worth a watch if you have any interest in the criminalization of the mentally ill or rehabilitative practises.
