What It Is HAZEL HONEY FILMS presents Solstice, a short film based on a true story of a couple in an emotionally unhealthy relationship. Travel with them on the journey that changed their view of love, life and each other forever in just 24 hours. When bad turns to worse, what will be the outcome? How far will things have to go until someone snaps? Statistics*Domestic abuse can happen to anyone, regardless of age, race, religion, sexual orientation, educational background or social status.
*Domestic violence is one of the most chronically underreported crimes mostly due to embarrassment and shame.
*One in every four women will experience domestic violence in her lifetime.
*Most victims are abused from someone they know. The ImpactSeldom are films seen that are unafraid to delve into something as frowned upon as abuse. This film needs to be seen by everyone, especially if you are single, dating, married or looking to be involved. This story shows how a relationship can go from playful verbal jabs (which most people brush off), to the unthinkable.... Learn the signs of abuse before it gets too far and know when to leave. This is only one story, but there are countless others that go untold. Let's start an open discussion about the taboo subject of abuse and make some real life changes.
