"No Letting Go", based on a true story and adapted from the award-winning short film, "Illness", is a feature drama that follows one family's journey to understand and to cope with the erratic behavior and emotional instability of their middle son, Tim. The family's world starts to unravel as they discover that their son's increasing fragility is due to mental illness. Tim's painful, yet invisible, struggle takes its toll on his parents and the well-being of his two brothers. Anger, resentment, and conflict arise as Tim's parents desperately search for answers. His family must play an integral role in finding the help he needs, but will it be too late? Will love, strength and courage prevail to reveal the resiliency of the human spirit?

"No Letting Go" is a powerful film that gives voice to millions of families who suffer alone and in silence. This poignant film honestly depicts the potentially devastating impacts of mental health disorders, which affect 1 in 5 children in the United States every year. The pervasive stigma surrounding mental illness prevents people from understanding what is happening and seeking the help they need. Sharing truthful, personal stories is an important step toward opening the important dialogue around youth mental health. This courageous film does exactly that and more, touching audiences in a deep and meaningful way.
