Om Song for Ria

'A penetrating view into what it means to grieve, and then to heal ... a captivating story' Karen Harradine Talented composer Alison Connaught has spent her career writing music for big names, but when her actress daughter, Ria, dies from an overdose, Alison is numb and can no longer compose. Haunted by the feeling that she has somehow let Ria down, Alison searches for answers, first during an intense stay with a Hopi shaman and then by travelling to Hollywood to try to piece together the many parts of Ria's life that have so far eluded her. As she meets her daughter's friends, colleagues and therapists, Alison finally begins to understand the realities of Ria's life, opening the door to self expression and a different kind of music, inspired by stirred/raw feelings and the spirit of Ria. Michelle Shine's skill as a storyteller brings Alison's thoughts and actions to life in this visceral and deeply moving tale of grief, regret and ultimately, hope.
