Through intimate stories of patients, families, and medical providers, Bedlam is a feature-length documentary that immerses us in the national crisis surrounding the care of the severely mentally ill. Filmed over five years, it brings us inside one of America’s busiest psychiatric emergency rooms, into jails where psychiatric patients are warehoused, and to the homes— and homeless encampments—of mentally ill members of our communities, where silence and shame often compound personal suffering. Discussion with director and producer Kenneth Rosenberg and producer Peter Miller to follow. D, POC, SJ.
