Dancer in the Dark

At the mercy of abusive lives and Borderline Personality Disorder, a boy and girl on separate edges of the world discover each other online. Bonding through music, video games and a mutual understanding of self-destruction, they rapidly shift from being best friends to lovers, finding in each other a tenderness their worlds had never offered.

But things change.

Now older, the woman sits down to reflect on their story. Spanning 15 years and subtly weaving traces of their past into poetry, she wonders if the beauty of words is enough to overpower the tragedy of a dismantled mind, body and life.

The prequel to a planned trilogy, 'Dancer in the Dark' explores the darker side of human nature and reality of living with both mental and physical illness.
