Bleach

A young man in his mid 20's, who is on the losing side of his battle with depression, gradually falls deeper into dejection, while further isolating himself from any outside help that may pull him back. Trying to keep track of the shift between the days and nights becomes increasingly inconsequential, as his ability to distinguish reality wanes.

Director Statement

This film is a deep dive into what depression feels like, and in particular, the self sabotaging nature of it. If anyone out there can relate, then I hope that some part of this video speaks to you. You should know that you're not alone and that even in our darkest times, we can still create something powerful to share with the world.
