States Of Mind
(DVD)
DIRECTED BY - Elisa Mishto
The only Italian film to play at the world's largest documentary festival, IDFA, STATES OF MIND is a unique and beautiful window into a fascinating otherworld.
A nurse and three mental patients take turns playing the lead role in four stories told over four seasons moving through crisis, waiting, normalization, and adjustment. Their world within the rooms and hallways of the psychiatric clinic is at once brutally honest, tragic and poetic. Elements of their previous lives and of their current daily adventures are told with the lightness of a fairy tale, but without omitting the harshest and most melancholic aspects of their existence.
