Join us for this #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth conversation with memoirist Alice Carrière, filmmaker Muffie Meyer (https://middlemarch.com), and artist Heidi Gelover (http://www.heidigeloverfilm.com).

In “Everything/Nothing/Someone,” Alice Carrière tells the story of her unconventional upbringing in Greenwich Village as the daughter of a remote mother, the renowned artist Jennifer Bartlett, and a charismatic father, European actor Mathieu Carrière. Her childhood days were a mixture of privilege, neglect, loneliness, and danger—a child living in an adult’s world, with little-to-no enforcement of boundaries or supervision.

As she enters adolescence and adulthood, a dissociative disorder erases Alice’s identity and doctors medicate her further away from herself. Eventually, she finds purpose in caring for her mother, as she descends into dementia; in a love affair with a recovering addict who steadies her; in confronting her father, whose words and actions splintered her; and in finding her voice as a writer. https://www.alicecarriere.com/
