LOGLINE: Engaging with art and artmaking can profoundly impact our mental, emotional and physical health. In this short-form documentary, we hear stories about how one museum’s Art and Wellness programs have turned that truth into transformative action.

SYNOPSIS: Justin Andrew Davis writes, directs, and stars in his own short film about a man consumed by an eating disorder, manifested as a slick, toxic companion (Ryan Wesen) who lingers on his every move. Over the course of 24 hours, he nearly sabotages his standing at his job and his relationship with his romantic partner (Peyton Michelle Edwards), all while pushing his body to dangerous extremes, giving us a look into how actions motivated by poor self-image can threaten every aspect of a person’s life.
