Plot

A gifted artist finds himself in a broken balance between creating world class art and the all too silent struggle of self care as his life begins to unravel because of his Dissociative Identity Disorder.

"Every star needs darkness to shine...The film tackles this directly by offering us glimpses into the artist's creative process and how each personality plays a part in the creation of the piece...We see the strain this places on his handlers, therapist and specifically one of his romantic relationships... Successfully executing a piece with such a complex message and handled with great empathy... It manages to humanize not only the illness of DID but to humanize the idea of an artist as well. That behind the carefully constructed work of beauty, lies the turmoil and sorrow that one had to endure to produce it."—Christopher Henry, The Blunt Post
