★
Jean-François Boisvenue tells us about his childhood fears and his history of mental illness. On the screen, we can see a series of hand-drawn animations projected onto his body that plunges us into psychosis and depersonalization. The whole was captured by the camera without postproduction effects.

Okay this was a little close to home, I have depersonalization derealization disorder as well as two other dissociative disorders and have never met someone with the same condition, I have spent time in psychiatric hospitals both voluntarily and involuntarily and I worried half way through that this would be really depressing but it wasn't. I will have to go read the Antoine de Saint-exupery novel now and maybe cry for a bit
