Self Medicated
Based on true events. Having recently suffered the death of his father, seventeen-year-old Andrew Eriksen's inability to cope with the loss catapults him down a path of denial, self-loathing and emotional entropy. Once a promising young scholar, Andrew finds himself on a drug-addled path to self-destruction. Resentful of his mother, Louise (Diane Venora), for her own chemical dependency, Andrew withdraws only further at a time when they need each other most. Louise's last resort is to hire a company that kidnaps troubled teens and places them in a locked-down and corrupt psychiatric hospital. After being subjected to the secret physical and emotional abuses of the program, Andrew learns the only thing that will help him come to terms with the loss of his father is Andrew himself. 107 min Dir: Monty Lapica / Producer: Tommy Bell / Las Vegas, Nevada / Screening Time: September 16th, 9:30 PM
