Zusammenfassungen

  • A love letter from the filmmaker and her husband to their daughter Corrina, "Drunk on Too Much Life" poetically and intimately captures Corrina's journey, at the age of 21, from the confines of locked down psych wards and diagnostic labels towards expansive worlds of creativity, community, connection and greater meaning. A complex and intimate family portrait of resilience and discovery, the film follows Corrina as she comes against the limitations of the mainstream psychiatric perspective in her search for a different language and more enriched story to understand her extreme psychic experiences. "Drunk on Too Much Life" seeks a holistic way of not only treating what gets called mental illness, but re-conceptualizing it as well. The film shines a light on the crooked beauty, the extreme sensitivity and creative expression contained within states of madness.—MLM

Synopsis

  • While many portraits of mental health struggles focus on the dark, Michelle Melles wonders if we can change the conversation by shifting focus to the light? Alternate stories create alternate worlds and different forms of experience. When we change the story and use a different language, we alter the ways in which we view the world, ourselves, and each other. As Jeanette Winterson says, "language is not something we speak; it speaks us." In a poetic and deeply personal way, then, "Drunk on Too Much Life" creates an alternative story and a different way of looking at mental health that moves beyond the language of diagnosis. It seeks a holistic way of not only treating what gets called mental illness, but re-conceptualizing it as well. It asks questions no longer asked: what is madness, who gets to decide, and where do we draw the line between sanity and insanity? Madness has meaning that goes far beyond brain chemistry. It cannot be separated from personal, socio-cultural dynamics and systems of power. It cannot be separated from what makes us fully human.
