Devastating, honest and beautiful documentation
11 August 2020
I watched " The worst thing" in Germany at the Snowdance Independent Filmfestival and was immediately blown away by the honesty, the empathy and the questions it raises on themes like justice, revenge and facing your worst fears.

Desireena Almoradie chose a very personal and unobtrusive way to tell the story of Kathleen who decides to try to visit and speak to the murderers of her brother. Being very interested in the history of the German terrorists of the R.A.F. and questions about how people can become murderers, for me the film provided a very interesting perspective on the whole subject matter.

Kathleen who tried to go the hard way instead of the simple way of revenge, hate and counter-violence, which is always self-destructive, has my highest respect. So has Des, the wonderful filmmaker who accompanied her friend Kathleen on this journey into the heart of darkness.
