Malady of Mine
An ill-fated artist comes to terms with the true source of his mysterious disease.
Malady of Mine tells the story of a young painter who, burdened by a mysterious affliction, struggles to save his relationship, and ultimately, himself. Upon discovering that the source of his artistic inspiration is linked to the disease that's killing him, he must decide what's more important to him: his work, or his emotional and physical wellbeing. The film will be released online late 2020.
