In her early 30s, filmmaker Laura Kansy is struck by ME/CFS, an incurable multisystemic illness that confines her to bed and transforms every aspect of her life. From this new reality, she creates a deeply personal documentary blending observation, diary, and animation. A poetic exploration of illness, identity, and resilience, the film offers an intimate insight into the lives of people with ME/CFS and Long COVID.
