Eight Words

If eight words is all you have, what do you say when your world is falling apart?

An emotional story written by Alistair Rutherford, about a woman who has to tell her husband the worst news of their lives. What makes it even harder is he's at sea for the next few months, a submariner, and regulations mean she can only send a message eight words long. Somehow throughout the film she manages to compose a message she thinks will help the both of them expressing everything she wants to say with just eight words.
