"Depression is living in a body that fights to survive, with a mind that tries to die”.
I’m Fine is the personal tale of a struggle through teenage depression. Written with evocative poetry, illustrated through fragmented hand-lettering, visualized through rich cinematography, and emotionally narrated by the author, I’m Fine is as personal and vulnerable as it gets. It showcases the distorted perception of reality that comes from depression and a realistic view of what “better” truly means.
The film notably received two National Student Production Awards from The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences for both its writing and for the film as a whole, the highest honor a high school student can receive.

The film was a nominee and a recipient at numerous prestigious film festivals internationally, and has been praised by creatives and filmmakers globally.
