God this is one of the most heartbreaking vids I've ever seen in my life. S4 is my favorite and it's great to see the focus on the kids. Trying to save them and failing just broke my heart and how you emphasized that really worked for me. I think the song choice works because it's about the kids so they still have some gentleness to them.
I think Dukie fanning the other girl was when I started crying and didn't stop throughout the vid. The Carver hitting the steering wheel is my personal kyptonite so it turned me from crying to sobbing instantly. I love the little moments of innocence and comfort you used and juxtaposed onto the violence and hurt made it hurt so much worse. Especially knowing it really isn't going to stop. Gah it kills me so much.
And you really should watch all of S5, there's some great kid moments in there as well.
