Coming Alive
Logline:
One hundred young people take a leap of faith to partake in a radically new solution to the youth mental health crisis.
Long Description:
In this character-driven vérité film, we follow three college-aged characters—Nikita, Deja, and Dylan—who are gripped with extreme depression, anxiety, and loneliness, intimately tracking their fraught and uncertain journey to healing. They are participating in a 48-hour intervention designed to pull people out of spirals of sadness, fear, and isolation, while boosting human connection. The clock is ticking as a team of renegade researchers at Columbia University races to test this novel approach and determine if it’s possible to have long-lasting effects on mental wellbeing—without doctors, pharmaceuticals, or charging people a single dollar.
