"what about the story of the man who wouldn't move? people ask him why he won't move but he won't reply, he can't reply, he is unable to because to do so would bring about the worst. he can't move he can't."
Sam lives with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. It makes everyday life repeatedly exhausting and unbearable. He wants to try and show you how it really feels. A show about mental illness, irrational rational fears, and how we learn to cope in unsettling times.
