Treatment:
This documentary follows a young woman through a semester in college, as she questions whether or not to end the university life laid before her. The film will follow Hayley in her final months as she contemplates what actually brought her to the university and how her medication and a condemned mansion on the university's property keeps her sanity in the balance. We follow her into the places where she cultivates an inner artist: Leonardo Stravinksy, a highly reclusive, yet confident musician who writes & records music. The documentary will follow the duality of Mills' current life (the budding artist fraught with familial and mental turmoil). The documentary will be a questioning, reflective meditation on one young woman's personal trek to self-discovery. Parallels will be drawn to a male who has just decided to attend the very same university.
After this synopsis was formed and initial video tests were conducted, I realized just how deep the conflict really was in not just Hayley's life, but every young person. Deeply rooted in family, and ultimately the way society views a "happy, successful lifestyle", I realized that this issue goes so deep as to affect myself if we both do not work to truly seek self-actualization. If college has become a commodity, or bargaining chip, rooted in societal expectation, how can anyone expect to lead a "happy, successful life"? Hayley and I will both explore this balance, in a world where joining the rat race as well as traditional nonconformity blur the lines of "breaking the mold".
This documentary was created as a capstone video project for final graduation requirements within the Video Production department at Pellissippi State Community College.
