Lucy: Breaking the Silence

Synopsis

Behind 22-year-old Lucy's smile she covered a dark secret.
In May 2012, Lucy committed suicide to the complete shock of all her friends and family. This is not only Lucy's story, but the story of those left behind, telling the tragic story of a young woman who sadly took her own life at the age of 23. Lucy’s story is told through the eyes of her family and friends alongside archive footage and photos of Lucy. Her family reminisces about Lucy as a young girl growing up and consider any indication of mental health issues, leading up to the events of the day she committed suicide.

A story about cancer, trauma, healing and hope. Two years have gone by since ABIGAIL was diagnosed with Stage Three Colorectal Bowel cancer.
