'A true story of love, family, strength...and the choices we make.In April 2009, two weeks short of his nineteenth birthday Toowoomba teenager Kristjan Terauds died due to complications from illicit drug use. Using the words of Kristjan's friends and family interviewed over many months, the result is a powerful mix of sadness, loss, and ultimately love, laced with humour.'
