Mornings with Tom and Tabi

Plugged In Reviews - Adam Holz

Adam Holz focuses on three films with topics that could spark powerful conversations with older teens, 'Missing,' 'Living,' and 'The Son.' Missing is a techno-thriller where a daughter uses technology to attempt to locate her mother who goes missing. Living focuses on a person who learns he has a terminal disease. Coming to grips with his death makes him realize he never truly lived. The final film, The Son is a moving study of mental illness and all the dynamics that go along with it: how families can help and hurt; how those suffering can help and hurt those around them. It also deals with self-harm and suicide ideation. Go to pluggedin.com for the full review on these films.
