Now Return Us to Normal -
In NOW RETURN US TO NORMAL, a filmmaker and her diverse classmates confront the trauma brought on by their years at a behavior modification boarding school. Pressing ahead to alleviate her crippling post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and shame about her time away at the school, the former high-school ice hockey star asks questions for which there most likely will be no answers attempting to connect the dots of her disjointed memories. In this ultimately healing personal essay, the filmmaker questions what kind of young person deserves this treatment, if any. Through this process, like many with PTSD, she wonders if she will ever be a reliable narrator of her own story and, if not, how much does that matter?
