Cinematerapie

Living in the age of reality TV, in a society hungry for sensation, it is easy to feed on the highly emotional stories of people whose futures are being shaped by dozens of professionals. Cinematherapy takes a slightly different approach. A commercial aired on Czech Television invited viewers to attend a casting and tell their stories. Eleven of those then underwent cinematherapy – provided by the camera as an intermediary between them and the outside world. Blurring the lines between feature film, documentary and reality show, the movie does not offer the participants plastic surgery or a reunion with a long lost friend, but lets them witness their often bizarre lives and thus move forward in dealing with their issues.
