Manic
There is no epiphany, no clean redemption. Healing is nonlinear, choice is muddied by context and freedom comes from not escaping the ward, but from the quiet courage to sit with oneself in all one’s brokenness. This film forces you to confront the uncomfortable truth that sometimes, the mind’s chaos is more honest than the order imposed upon it.
Will be going on an early 2000’s joseph gordon-leavitt binge !
