Excerpts from a review of "Hard To Belive" by A Midlife Wife with Chris Carroll

“The story is compelling. The film is direct and succinct at just 56 minutes. It does not get tangled in complexities or long back-stories. The facts are presented in a simple fashion, and the message is loud and clear.”

“A horrifying expose of monumental mass-murder, Hard to Believe is highly recommended especially for public and college library DVD collections. ”

— The Midwest Book Review, Library Bookwatch

Some people might say that something really isn’t news until it’s written in the New York Times… Whether that’s true or not, it’s still rather significant that the New York Times recently published three articles about organ harvesting in China. 

“Very engaging from the beginning to the end...I highly recommend this documentary”
