A Summer in the Cage : An Inside Look at Bipolar Disorder, Summer in the Cage, LLC

Contributor
Summary
This unique collaboration between a filmmaker and the subject of his work captures a personal battle with bipolar disorder while addressing the filmmaker's role in documenting mental illness. At his friend Sam's request, Ben Selkow turned the lens on Sam when Sam's disturbing behavior led to a diagnosis of bipolar disorder. Sam speaks candidly about living with the disease and describes its phases as he experiences them on camera. As Sam's story unfolds Selkow is forced to consider the ethical responsibilities of a documentary filmmaker witnessing his subject's distress. The program includes illuminating commentary from Dr. Kay Redfield Jamison
