Asylum


This is The Asylum produced by Andrew Geraci and Drew Breese at thevoder.com and  district7media.net.
Its a film made out of nearly 35,000 still photographs and took nearly 7months to create.



Words taken from vimeo:

"Opened in the early 1920s, the Asylum closed down and was abandoned decades ago. Rooms remain untouched – left as they were when the last of the employees departed. These buildings stand as a testament to the horrors and miss treatment that patients had to endure during the time of its operation.
Our 7 month journey into the Asylum led us on many adventures; from dodging security vehicles, ghostly figures and even a meth head. This is no place for the faint of heart. Asbestos blanketed every room we entered like new winter snow, so shooting was sometimes difficult."


Stunning albeit unsettling.
