SCATTERING C.J.
ABOUT
How do you best celebrate the life of a loved one? Hallie Twomey lost her son CJ to suicide. After years of grief, she was compelled to undertake one last maternal act. Something that commemorated the way he lived, not how his life ended. Hallie put a call out on social media, asking for help in honoring CJ’s love of travel by scattering his ashes in amazing places he might have visited had he lived. 21,000 people answered Hallie’s call. It became a worldwide phenomenon. Scattering CJ finds hope in the darkest of places, exploring the extraordinary generosity of strangers and one troubled family's attempt to finally find peace.
