The plot

Visual artist and writer Bradley Necyk approached me (the director) with a script he had developed during his downtime in a conference in Arizona. This script was an auto-ethnographic collection of memories and field notes that reflected on topics his direct experiences with bipolar disorder, parenthood and inter-generational connectedness through the conceptual lens of his own mania. After hearing him read his powerful thoughts out loud, I knew it deserved a kind of visual story telling that would not take away from his authentic voice. Necyk experiences and reflects on madness through both his doctoral research at a psychiatric hospital and his own mania following that research. Directed by Kyle Terrence and performed and written by Necyk, this film weaves larger, longer stories of madness and time.
