Adventurmentalism is a 35-minute interpersonal documentary which records a 400-mile kayak expedition from Haines, Alaska to Wrangell, Alaska. This is not a sports film, but rather a personal perspective on suffering from Post Traumatic Stress-Disorder (PTSD) and suicide in varying degrees.
The "internal monologue" style of production creates an emotional story line of two suicide survivors after their reclusion to Juneau, Alaska in retreat from traumatic events. As an Army Combat veteran, I chose to create this film in hopes of sparking a new awareness for understanding PTSD treatment and the important role that conserving nature plays in modeling modern health.
