Munchausen

MOVIE #1,559 • 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿 • 04.19.24
From the Kickstarter copy:
MUNCHAUSEN is a vibrant, wordless, Pixar-inspired montage (think the marriage sequence in UP, but live action) in which a devoted mother, unable to confront the heartbreak of her son leaving for college, delays his departure by making him sick. She accidentally goes too far, is helpless to reverse that which she set in motion, and is forced to face the unfathomable consequences of her decision. Again, think Pixar!
Via Wikipedia:
The film is named for the phenomenon of Munchausen syndrome by proxy, "a behavior pattern in which a caregiver deliberately exaggerates, fabricates, and/or induces physical, psychological, behavioral, and/or mental health problems in those who are in their care."
So yeah, this is the Pixar-inspired silent short horror film about 'Munchausen syndrome by proxy' you never know you needed or even wanted. It was fun to see Richard Riehle pop up unexpectedly too.
