The Hanging Garden (film)


The Hanging Garden is a 1997 BritishCanadian movie written and directed by Thom Fitzgerald that is about the duality of life and death and the way seemingly very different choices in life can lead to similar outcomes. The film was shot in Nova Scotia.

As a consequence of the ensuing rejection, particularly by his father Peter MacNeill, Sweet William had the choice of either running away to live in a big city far away from the family or end his life by hanging himself from a tree in the garden.In the movie, both the alive, now slender and selfassured Sweet William and the obese, suffocated teenage Sweet William, hanging as a fresh corpse in the garden, are present and interacting. In the version of reality where Sweet William dies, his family members cannot shed their memories of his death and carry on with their lives, whereas in the other version Sweet William is haunted by memories of his fathers misbehavior and is unable to reconcile with him. ........
