Serving as a self-portrait, evidence illustrates an authentic insight on navigating mental health. Reciting ineffective personal mantras to missed calls from therapists, this collected “evidence” is a testament that everything is not okay. The film plays between abrupt imagery and measured moments, pushing the chaos mental health can bring.
