Under the Bridge: El asesinato de Reena Virk

When Reena was a toddler her and her family moved in next door. Her and her family became like family so much that if you visited my grandparents in Saskatchewan you could see pics of Reena there.

I gave 8 stars because there were certain aspects I didn't like. I wish they had kept the location much smiliar to what it truly is. The series portrayed it as remote and with no one around in any direction. If you google the Craigflower Bridge in Saanich you will see it's surrounded in 2 directions with lots of people as well as the traffic. When you see how populated the area is it makes it even more shocking that no one heard or saw anything.

The other issue I has was on the portrayal of Manjit. He is a soft spoken man but they portray him more like a pushover and someone who can't speak for himself or his family whon he showed in all interviews that is far from the truth.

The mini series was pretty accurate and and I definitely recommend. When it comes to to a series like this and a review from someone who knew them personally the review could be very good or very bad but I will say I recommend.

One last thing I'll share is my fave memory of Reena. They were Jehovahs Witness so they didn't celebrate holidays. She loved coming over for the holidays and seeing the decorations everywhere. One year on Halloween she was so sad because she had never been trick or treating so I grabbed a pillow case and we went across the street to our neighbours house and she got to trick or treat. She didn't have a costume or even care because in that moment she was truly happy and that's the memories of Reena I will always remember.
