Not only is The Party’s Just Beginning, written and directed by Karen Gillan, is a must see on all levels. The main character copes with the suicide of her best friend, and never before has the reality and raw truth of such situations been put to screen. Masterfully written and directed, with top-level performances all throughout, this movie has not just lessons for filmmakers but also for human beings in general. We get into a raw conversation about the film’s topic, and hopefully when you watch this movie you will have many conversations about it with those close to you. We have included some Suicide Help Lines below. If you need them, please use them. If you know, or think you know someone in need, direct them to one of these numbers.

The Party’s Just Beginning can be found on Tubi.
