What pushes a loving mother so far that she takes the life of her own child?
The movie simply titled "Ellen" based on the true story of Ellen Pakkies and the murder of her son, Adam Pakkies, could possibly shed some light on what lead to their specific experience.
Ellen Pakkies' story caught the attention of everyone around the world when she was accused of murdering her son in 2007. The film promises to keep viewers on the edge of their seats in the same manner the court case did.
The film has already screened at the Rotterdam International Film Festival on 27 January 2018 and was also chosen to compete at the 44th Seattle International Film Festival that took place from 17 May to 10 June 2018.
It was well received by festival goers and film critics, who have called it a phenomenal piece of art and a film that will change your life.
