This straight-to-DVD unrated GEM is described as an "eerie medical mind-bender" about how a confrontation with True Fear can illuminate the issues of an entire life, including those that are extended throughout the world. The film begins with the successful middle-aged white male, George Grieves, goes in to the hospital for a "routine medical procedure" the day after his 40th birthday. The "routine" quickly unravels and the film treads a fine line between reality and the psychotic & delusional clarity that erupts from deep within his psyche as he attempts to bring together what parts of himself are still accessible to him without, ultimately, succumbing to the profound depths of his own dearly held fears to which he's clung for most of his life. This one strikes a resonant chord with me -- having known people (and have, myself) experience some of medical injustices first-hand. Check it out, if you get around to it: www.imdb.com/title/tt0822858/
