Alter Ego

Diving through the mind's eye ... sifting debris of the splintering conscious ... lurking in chambers of hope and memory .... spark ignites the other in self ... stealing dominion in fragile reality ... both collide ... who shall prevail? Director RUSCH MEYER was inspired by a visit to an old disused sanatorium while scouting potential locations for his next project. Exploring the long, dark, rotting corridors, the decaying rooms, he found himself pondering on the contrasts of tragedy and hope which must inevitably have coexisted in such a place, journeys taken inside the mind which may never have been physically possible, parallel lives lived in the imaginations of the people who worked or were admitted as patients in the building.
