In a mosaic of games, films, and media, the protagonist's perspective, a fragmented state of mind, merges, and the boundaries between reality and dreams dissolve. 1g of quetiapine, both a remedy and a means of forgetting, dampens the heart and shatters identity. The film collage reflects on the medicalization of mental suffering and the loneliness that lies in synthetic calm. Through chaotic layers of media, it shows how the self is not healed, but rather rendered illegible and suspended in a borderline state between sedation and despair.
