Storyline

A profoundly personal voyage into the complexity, fragility and wonder of the human brain, after Lotje Sodderland miraculously survives a hemorrhagic stroke and finds herself starting again in an alien world, bereft of language and logic. This feature documentary takes us on a genre-twisting tale that is by turns excruciating and exquisite - from the devastating consequences of a first-time neurological experiment, through to the extraordinary revelations of her altered sensory perception.

Surprisingly beautiful and emotionally intense, this visually stunning glass eye is a testament to Sodderland's spirited strength in the midst of her delightfully strange, but entirely real, Lynchian nightmare.

To those who have never seen someone suffer a stroke, you'll learn something new about the medical issue. To those who've seen the effects first hand, this film will likely earn a special place in your heart.
