Dear friends and other interesting creatures,
I attended a VIP screening of Die Ellen Pakkies Storie tonight at Ster Kinekor.
It was one of two occasions where I was so emotional that I chose not to interact with the cast, but leave to cry in my car.
To grasp #DieEllenPakkiesStorie would be to open yourself to the unthinkable. A mother killing her adult son.
You have to see this heartbreaking, raw, unbelievable true love/life story to understand the depth of a mother’s love, and the width of her despair.
I cannot rate this movie higher than I do.
Jill Jazz Levenberg portrayal of Ellen Pakkies is authentic, crippling with emotion and without pretense. Wow.
Jarrid Geduld in the role of Abie Pakkies, is pure to the point of cringing at the pain, evil and psychologically feeling the desperation every time the word “Mommy” escapes. Phenomenal.
I wish you enough,
Wenchy
