Pia, 26, is surrounded by chaos. Recently discharged from a psychiatric hospital, she returns to live with her parents. Determined to get back to a “normal” life, she starts a new job, reconnects with her ex-boyfriend, takes her medication, and battles her inner demons. Yet the hardest part is not losing herself among the many realities she creates. Premiering at the Berlinale, this debut offers a vital and heartfelt look at mental health struggles that are still too often stigmatized in our society.
