SWEET STRUGGLE

This is a very touching and informative short film about a disease that is all too common and many people know very little about -- type 1 diabetes.

Beautifully shot - great camera work, audio recording and editing. Excellent acting, particularly on behalf of the mother and young boy. I like how realistic this film is, almost like a documentary. KIDS FIRST! doesn't normally show films that are medical in nature, but this goes way beyond that - it really addresses the emotional impact of living with the disease - from both the mom and the boy's point of view. My favorite scene is the ending when mom and son are running together. It shows that you can lead a normal life when you are dealing with diabetes and that is such a positive message to share.

The film's message is about the impact of a disease such as type 1 diabetes and how, with love and support, a person can lead a normal life.

I give Sweet Struggle 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 5 through 18, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!
