Film. In Process Record. Originally produced by New Day Films in 2021. In a world gone crazy, a young woman discovers that her madness is a fierce and powerful gift that makes her more fully human. DRUNK ON TOO MUCH LIFE is a powerful and intimate feature documentary that follows Corrina, the filmmaker's 21-year-old-daughter on her mind-opening journey from locked-down psych ward and countless medications towards expansive worlds of creativity, connection and greater meaning. On her journey of self-discovery, Corrina learns how madness has meaning that goes far beyond brain chemistry. This film advocates for a new paradigm in mental health – one that celebrates resilience, polyphony, peer support and community-based healing models; one that enables us to look beyond medicalized and disease-centered thinking and is grounded in lived experience, holistic, regenerative, and transformative mental health practices. DRUNK ON TOO MUCH LIFE opens up our narrow definition of "normal" to the full range of human and psychic experiences. ... a must-view film for mental health practitioners and families alike as it offers a unique, holistic, and much-needed perspective on the journey towards recovery." (Samantha Wehbi, MSW, RSW, MFA, PhD - Professor, School of Social Work, Toronto Metropolitan University) ... We’ve all heard stories of mad artists or seen biopics about creative geniuses who channelled their inner demons into radical, transformative art. The doc explores these ideas with a personal approach as Corrina and other mental health advocates inspire audiences to frame the ways in which we perceive and discuss mental health.
