"'Dear Nobhead,' is a participatory documentary that tells the story of the film's director (M.J Connor) living with MADD (Mixed Anxiety and Depressive Disorder) and their father, who has always supported them but has struggled to understand what they're going through. This will be shown through a dramatised lens to show what it's like living with this condition. Towards the end of this film, M.J will be showing the dramatised short-film to their father to capture his authentic reaction to the film. He has no knowledge that this film is being made, as we're surprising him. So his reaction to the film will truly be authentic, raw, and hopefully moving."
This latest production of mine has been an incredible experience for me and has given me an excellent opportunity to practice and showcase my expertise as a writer and director. Finding the perfect balance of actualised footage and dramatized footage and seamlessly blending them together in one documentary has been a unique experience that has given me a lot to bring to the table as a director.
And with the help of a great crew (and a script that brought one of which to tears), this film is targeted to reach a large audience via film festivals.
