Going Back

What would you do if a relative committed suicide ? How would you break it to other members of the family who didn't know what happened . This is the situation Douglas finds himself in , in a short film by Conal Percy entitled GOING BACK I finally got round to watching this a few hours after I'd seen ANGELA'S ASHES and I don't think I was capable of smiling for a very long time afterwards . It's rather poignant and right away you feel for Douglas because you just know he's going to tell his grandmother that his father didn't die from a heart attack but committed suicide by gassing himself in the car , a car that he now drives about in . As Bob said in his review everything about this short film is natural and moving , but it is perhaps a little too moving , so much so that you feel a wave of depression washing over you . Yet another film that is a little too sad for its own good
