DIAGNOSIS (2017)
17 mins
Eva Riley delves into a world where the black-and-white moral lines bleed into shades of gray, and resurfaces with Diagnosis; a thought-provoking, emotional rollercoaster of a film, driven by an electrifying performance and supercharged by an affecting narrative.
Diagnosis is a story of a woman who acts out the roles of different patients in order to help with the training of doctors. However, the woman has her own troubles. The audience, like a doctor, is challenged to work out what is wrong.
