Summary
A beautiful and haunting exploration of what happens when consciousness and memory begin to disintegrate. Conscious narrates the stories of Wendy Mitchell, Pegeen O’Sullivan, and Maureen Winfield who navigate dementia in transformative ways. Mirroring their journeys is the work of neuroscientist Anil Seth who has dedicated his career to studying consciousness, and finds his professional and personal life intersect as science becomes personal. With striking visuals and a rich, textured soundscape, Conscious invites audiences inside these altered landscapes of awareness, asking: what remains of us when our internal landscape fragments?
