XL






What is madness? Is it a descension or can we reframe it as a divine ascension? Would you consider people in love, sound of mind? Does love cause insanity? Is the compulsion of madness necessary for creation? 

This movie serves as the visual accompaniment to XL, an audio exploration into the inexplicable madness often associated with love. Love of the divine, love of a craft or love of a fellow being. 

You should consider this a dialectic inquisition into the mind of its creators, who are attempting to reconcile with the notion that bouts of madness often diagnosed as manic episodes could perhaps be considered theia mania, and worthy of pursuing instead of subduing with medication. 

A metempsychosis of an uncontrollable part of the mind.
