The Salvation Of The World As We Know It (2021)
At first glance, Paul is just a normal eighteen-year-old. What no one knows is that Paul is bipolar. He is helplessly at the mercy of the radical mood swings in his brain. When a depressive episode ends in a suicide attempt, his single father Hardy has to commit him to a therapy center for mentally ill teenagers. At the clinic, Paul meets teenagers who are also struggling with mental problems. He has to make a decision: Does he continue to run away from his illness?
