"Up/Down" Bipolar Disorder Documentary - SHORT VERSION

A condensed and more definitive version of the award-winning documentary "Up/Down."

There are approximately 5.7 million people in the United States with bipolar disorder. In an attempt to eliminate the mystery and misinformation surrounding the illness, many throughout the country diagnosed with this condition were interviewed extensively. Shot in a style influenced by the support group format, they diligently explain the struggle to balance themselves between floating to a state of euphoria and sinking to a devastating depression.

In short, "Up/Down" is a personal analysis of bipolar disorder from those living with it; words of advice and wisdom to help others navigate their diagnosis.

"Bipolar disorder is just one of many mental illnesses that is still highly stigmatized in our culture today, and 'Up/Down' could certainly be instrumental in changing that fact."
