documentary
Moving, troubling, sad film. In 2006 Joyce Vincent, a 40 yo London resident was discovered dead in her apartment. Her remains were lying on the floor in front of a TV which was running. She had been dead since 2003.
The striking thing is that she had been very popular...pretty, stylish, frequently described as the life of the party...she had four sisters, former swains...what happened to this woman? And why? What does this say about modern life...if anything? How could it be that no one sought her out in all that time?
This filmmaker did a masterful job of telling this story...using re-creations, talking heads and location shooting. She doesn't provide answers...just gives us enough information to allow us to make intelligent guesses...and reflect on the above questions.
Excellent work.
