Experiencing Interruptions?

212

This short is a moment in the life of a young man who was living the realities that come with having a mental illness. His apartment is a microcosm of the chaos that is life when everyone is fighting for a spot. The split screens offer a glimpse into how this chaos is possible with one half living in a grey limited world and the other half being a vision of abundance. Curiously, the stars of the film see the issues clearly, with insightful understandings.
