My Missing Screw

About This Movie

So, 'My Missing Screw' is this deep dive into the life of Raffael, really raw and personal. After his suicide attempt, you can feel the weight of his journey as he grapples with his mental health. The pacing is unique—sometimes slow, almost meditative, allowing you to soak in his thoughts. The documentary aspect shines through as he and his sculptor buddy build this massive screw sculpture, which feels symbolic of his search for stability. The atmosphere is a mix of hope and despair, with a touch of dark humor. It's not your typical doc, and the way they document the process adds layers to the narrative. Definitely a fascinating exploration of creativity as a coping mechanism.

Documentary focusing on mental health and creativity · Unique approach to storytelling through art and process · Strong thematic elements related to fatherhood and recovery
