"Family Life"
1972
Directed by Ken Loach
Ken Loach's stirring indictment of the generation gap,
the mental health care system and society at large. Janice Baildon is a girl
with an identity crisis. When she becomes pregnant, her parents force her to
get an abortion, then take her to a psychiatric hospital where she undergoes
nightmarish and brutal electroshock therapy and is left as little more than
a shell of a human. "A haunting film…tender, touching and true" (The New
York Daily News). 108 minutes. |
