Director: Robert Lemelson | Producer: Alessandra Pasquino
Focus Years: 2011 | Country: United States
Synopsis:
Memory of My Face focuses on Bambang Rudjito, a university-educated Indonesian man diagnosed with schizo-affective disorder. It explores the “globalized†features of Bambang’s illness and recovery narrative including Western psychiatric diagnostics and pharmaceuticals, urban work opportunities, an interfaith religious community, and his family’s acceptance and understanding. But it also considers aspects of Bambang’s more complex historically- and politically-shaded narrative, giving language and a deeper substance to his experience of illness. Memory of My Face illustrates how the residue of colonialism and the pervasive influence of globalization affect the subjective experience of mental illness.
