- An aspiring filmmaker attempts to jump start his career by creating a documentary about classic Volkswagen beetles. But when his mother -- whom he cares for at home -- suffers another schizophrenic episode, she places everything he’s worked for in jeopardy.
schizophrenia is a chronic and severe mental disorder. The symptoms can be very disabling. 1 in 100 are affected.
schizophrenia and other dissociative disorders do not get the Representation they deserve in film and television. This is a true story of severe mental illness and its effect on a family.
If you or a family member lives with schizophrenia, YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
Written, produced and directed by Darious Britt.

Thank you all for your support. I hope you enjoy the movie!
D4Darious 14 minutes in, very impressed
Heavy bro!!! Frfr, I remember alot of this shit.
46 Minutes into the movie and love it so far!!!! Great Work :D
What year does the movie take place
I'm only 18 minutes in... I'm loving this.
Can we just take a second to appreciate the enormity of this moment? I know a lot of us have followed Darious's journey in making this film over the years, and I personally never imagined that he would release his "proper" film on his TH-cam channel. I'm really grateful that you've done this, man, not only because we get to see what you've been working on all this time, but also because of the sign it gives--that TH-cam is a platform for "proper" content, for real feature-length movies that people spend years making. TH-cam may be your "side hustle", but your side hustle is so good, Darious, that you have created a fan base of 268K subscribers who will now appreciate your work. You don't need a distributor: you've created your OWN means of distribution. All the old structures and institutions of filmmaking--studios, distributors, executives--are gradually falling away, and TH-cam isn't the poor cousin of the "proper" film industry anymore: it is every bit as "valid" and "proper", and will continue to become more so. Sorry this is a bit long winded lol but I just think this is a really important moment. What a journey. Thank you, bro!!
Preach!
I’m so happy for him.
James Olsen this is probably the most beautiful comment I've ever read. Totally agree with you.
200% agrement!!
amen.
Your film is being used as a study tool/learning experience in our Nursing Program, and I must say that you have definitely opened my eyes in many ways! I appreciate you for doing this and I hope for nothing but peace and blessings in your future!!
You've been working on this film for 7 years and you're letting us watch it for free? Don't you at least have a patreon profile that we can donate to?
Yes I’d totally sign up for his patreon!!
i would too
Nothing for nothing im sure his channel is monetized. In other words it means he will make money when the movie is watched on here or other streaming platforms. Which means when you an everyone else click play TH-cam pays him a small portion because his channel is monetized. Your helping without realizing,great movie tho!
@@Vinnie-Tee a sub 100k view video will be lucky to earn about $20.00 with TH-cams adsense platform. I really do hope that Darius gets the recognition and monetization he deserves. His passion and dedication for filmmaking is infectious.
@@Vinnie-Tee In a video he just uploaded, he shows that he only earned 35 dollars the whole time this video has been up.
I suffer from Schizophrenia as well. I take my shots faithfully. I had ran into traffic before. Yelled at strangers and clerks. Stolen from stores. Wrote threatening letters to people. Beat myself with sticks. Cut myself with razors. Walked around with incense. Poured liquor over my head. Slept in a cemetery. Ate out the garbage. Had so many delusions. But Those days are behind me now. Seeing her reminded me of the burden I was on my family and the community as well. This movie taught me a lesson. Thank you.
I hope you are doing good brother!
May God bless you brother. Thank you for sharing this. So many families are affected by this.
I cried. My Aunt had schizophrenia and my Grandmother had dementia I watched my Mom take care of both of them the best she could for so many years. The inner turmoil you showed, the failures in the system, the relief when someone would just help, the hope when a lucid moment would pop up...and so much more. God Bless you for showing this.
I've learned much about film-making from you Darious. But today I learned about life. Well done, bravely done.
Very well formulated (is that an english word ? Sorry I'm French)
REC Film School Don’t apologise for being French! (In your country soon). Formulated is a good word 👍
Beautifully put. Totally agree!
Criminally under-viewed, cannot believe this film didn’t find a buyer. SMH...
Yup. Not the best production quality but the screenplay and acting is super on-point. Really powerful stuff!
Nicely done Darious! Pulled on my heart and made me feel for so many reasons.
Thank you CJ!
Wow! I was really sucked into your character's struggle. That ending was incredible and it all felt so real. Amazing piece of work!!
And incredible acting from yourself and the Mom character!
He's right, you're not alone. Mental illness is comical, until it's your family members going through it. Delusions of seeing unicorns are funny, until it's your daughters mom going through it and you have to explain to your 7 year old why she can't see her mom for her birthday unsupervised. I struggled with this for YEARS, and still do to this day. People don't think about the toll that mental illness takes on their family members, it's so incredibly stressful having to explain a family members erratic behavior to friends and other family members. It's embarrassing. Darious I don't know how you did it, and if it really was your mom then I'm at a loss for words. I'm excited to learn more about this story in the documentary. And if you or anyone else has any suggestions on how to handle it or manage family members, I'm listening.
And Darious I remember stumbling across your channel years ago and watched some random video on film making, didn't think twice about it, had zero interest in film makin myself. Fast forward to now starting my own adventures and I learned damn near everything from you. Not even so much film making but how to make your videos fun and engaging. I like to try a lot of different elements from different creators and definitely mixed in a bit of your style. I was mad when you stopped uploading for so long but to now know the reason why, it was worth the wait.
Thank you for everything man, honestly.
Stylish Dad
We can get a man to the moon, calculate the age of the universe and view other star systems. But we can't cure a mental illness. Poor people :(
This is wonderful the actor who played your mom what amazing!!
Very proud of this film and glad to finally release it for everybody! Thank you Darious for letting me help you make this film
mosierdp Dude, the cinematography in this was awesome. You guys have been such an inspiration to me.
thank you very much!
Congratulations on what you managed to do with this choice of camera, i think the cinematography is great. I was distracted at times by the focus being ever so slightly off and the look of what could be digital NR maybe..? But i guess that’s what it’s gonna be with a sensor that size and such a small screen/ monitor, maybe no reliable focus peaking.
Overall i loved the movie because it tells a poignant story and the characters are highly relatable, bravo
Great editing and audio! This is one of the better independent films I've seen in awhile.
Darious is a teacher to me. Ever since I found Darious's video on 15 Mistakes Indie filmmakers make, I've been watching and learning from him. This movie is not just great, it's not just important-it's a film that I think should be viewed by as many people. It's a film whose message should never be unheard, a film whose craft should be celebrated and I want Darious to know this "You are great". Darious, you've worked on your craft and helped us for years and I only want to support you and to see your craft and stories be told to everyone. In my highest hopes and beliefs, I'd want you to become a filmmaker who goes on to make the big films that everyone sees-so you can show the stories that matter. I've seen it happen to so many others and I know you could too. I have faith in you and will support you, so thank you for making this amazing film
losepoundsandinches what’s your problem?
There's something written, and there's something written well. This movie was written EXTREMELY well. Every moment has you feeling someway for the characters, and the dialog and acting is amazing.
“Isn’t it a little pretentious to be in your own movie?” Haha I paused the flick to point out the irony of that line. Loving the movie, man! So inspiring on many levels.
I'll just add on. Indy filmmakers often cast themselves so they don't have to rely on another person to be the main actor. Saves money. Isn't easy. Less headaches.
I was quoting a line from the movie, which was funny because he's in the movie. It wasn't a knock on Darious at all. I loved this flick and I'm a big fan of his.
This is one of the best independent films I’ve seen. The quality is legit! This should’ve been on Netflix
I have not dealt with a family member with a mental illness before. But, this struck a chord for me personally. The depth of "Reggie" having to deal with this situation was drowning. I deal with my mother and Alzheimers and I had to deal with my first wife and her mental illness while I was in the military. This was difficult to watch as it progressed. And why did I continue watching? It helped me not feel alone with the issues I deal with and dealt with in the past. See, that was the hardest thing to watch, the loneliness within the situation. The wanting out, but also the overpowering urge to rectify or at least help make things better. Watching the tape of her on stage was the same for me watching how my mother used to be before her disease took over and replaced her. It's hard, no - it's damn difficult and at times disturbing to see our loved one suffer through their situation. Thanks for allowing all of the hard work and dedication that all of you put into making this come into the light. And thank you for allowing us to see this here on this platform. If I'm able to support in any other way, it only takes keystrokes...D4D, I'm there! BRAVO.
The dialogue is probably my favorite aspect of the entire film. It all feels like real people having real emotional conversations and it can even be comedic and make me chuckle when it needs too. And as for acting, for the most part all the performances were good and I believed the characters they played. Despite the low budget you managed to use some well done cinematography and it really brought another layer to the story. Despite me praising the writing however, I do not like how the subplot of the jeep film fits in with the mother storyline. I love aspects of it, like the main characters struggle with his job and his relationship with his friend. But alot of times the actual jeep aspect could be a bit distracting from the rest of the film (in my opinion). With that being said I really enjoyed this film and it shows that you do not need a blockbuster budget or big name stars to make an emotional film that can have an impact. The story and the intent behind it was all really well done, and I am excited to see what comes next.
Wow. That was so powerful and moving. The studios should be knocking down your door to get you working. Seriously.
I bet there already are a few !
Amazing film, I can't believe, that the most of the film was shot on a 60D, so great work.
Congrats!!!
Looks like a 60D so not sure what you shocked about. Love of bad work is not helping him.
I don't think it was...
Loved this film! Gripping... heartbreaking... drama-filled...and deep! I can't wait to see the BTS. I felt very much like I was living the frustrations right along with Reggie.
Everyone who loves and cares for someone struggling with mental illness should see this. It’s so real and offers rare insight into how firmly the cards are stacked against the family and the patient. The fallout for everyone is devastating and HIPPA laws are fiendish in their privacy protection that somehow works against everyone’s best interests. There aren’t easy answers, but this film also ended in a moving and hopeful way. I am glad I ran across it.
Beautifully made! My oldest sister has a mental illness, it’s not as extreme as this. That scene at 1:24:18, is so real. It’s like trying to get through to that person, it feels like beating your head against a wall and it only escalates. I am thankful that it has been getting better.
Nate's Film Tutorials yeah, the stigma of mental illness is hard to break, but funding and awareness is key.
At first I was like, “ oh it’s a lame TH-cam movie by some kids” and then I saw the opening long shot the great bridge shot, and it was amazing.
"Isn't it a little pretencious to be in your own movie?"
Iconic.
Frankie Bornia ironic*
It's HIS STORY. Who knows it better than Him? More Expensive to bring in yet ANOTHER Actor. Spike Lee, Woody Allen Eddie Murphy, Tarrantino & a SLEW of others have done the SAME THING. SO WHAT!
Im a little late, but watching this week
Clint Eastwood
@@whomadeusrace1547 It was a line in the movie.
1:31:06 i couldnt hold it no more brother. This made it to my top 5 favorite movie of all time. I can no longer hold back the tears brother. Thank you for making this. Also thanx for all the training tips in all your other videos brother. Thank yo fron the bottom of my heart. Hope one day to meat you and have a sit down heart to heart. My mother is 68 years old and in the rising stages of dementia.il i go threw situations simular and it kills me inside to se such a strong kind woman go through this. It is a strugle with work and outside life but its my mom. The only woman i was able to truly trust my hole life.
This should win an academy award.. period. Truly brilliant filmmaking but heartbreaking at the same time due to the fact that this is based on your true story. So many people all over the world go through this daily with their loved ones and with this film you have shined a bright light for them. This is filmmaking at its best. Thank you Darious for 7 years of hard and difficult work!
The pain your character is feeling really came through and you can't help but feel it with him as you watch. I don't have any experience with that kind of illness but I can now say that I have a new appreciation for what it must be like for those going through it. An incredible film. Absolutely brilliant. You should be very proud of what you have achieved.
Right
I first watched the “making of” video and then I watched this gem, (I’m glad I did) and I must say I’m am moved and humbled by your film and by you as a person Darious. Your perseverance and care and love have produced a very special film on a subject matter most are afraid of, or are ashamed of. I’m simply astonished, to think these are but snapshots of your reality, only part of the story. You are your team have a lot to be proud of. I do feel compelled to give after viewing. Is there a way to do that? This film is worthy of an expression of gratitude from its viewers. I noticed you didn’t even monetize, your character is golden. Thank you.
D4Darious, UNSOUND is a Master Piece it touch my soul and as a kid through my life I never understood why so many people didn't get the help they needed. The film open my mind on a personal level . Vewing through the lens of your camera clearly show how differicul it is and the struggle it is to live and care for your Luv one day to day . One Nation, Peace. Wow ! What a Great Film !
Why this only has 16k views after 2 days is just mind blowing. This should have blew up extremely quick.
Seth's Project Woodworking I thought the same thing. The good thing is this film will age like wine. People will continuously stumble onto this movie down the years and see what a great job he did.
losepoundsandinches I would disagree because I have a personal connection to the subject matter....I actually completely understand what your saying in terms of business practices but ultimately homie made a feature on his own and did a dope job in the process..
losepoundsandinches I dig it!
I love how personal this is.
Darious, I cry 3 times, the ending was heartbreaking, it's so raw and all out there with a lot of beauty. Thank you...
watched the whole movie. its awesome
Darious, this movie is outstanding. I was captivated every second. It brought back memories of the '63 Vooom Tweedle Tweedle I drove in '77 while in high school. And of my friend Neil whose family purchased 10 acres and a mobile home on a dirt road out in the woods so his mom would not have neigbors to disturb and no traffic to harm her when she had her episodes. That was when the government closed most of their mental institutions and turned all but the violent mental patients out to the streets. It takes a lot of love, patience and self sacrifice to care for people with mental illness. So many people have no awareness of the problems affected families have to deal with and so little compassion. This film so realistically depicts the struggles faced by so many. It is also a great drama film with excellent cinematography. Well done. Thank you for sharing it on TH-cam.
I HAVE BEEN WATING SOOOO LONG FOR THIS!!!!
(Edit) 1 hour 33 minutes and 42 seconds later and i am in love, i empathise so much with the characters, the cinematography is on point and the lighting is just about perfect!! Thankyou for taking the time to make this when most people would give up after a year or two, the outcome is truly beautiful!
I needed to watch this tonight. A few hours earlier I was reading about form 1 and form 2 and trying to figure out how to get my family member admitted if he gets much worse this month. Whenever he ends up in the emergency room, they just send him home in the middle of the night and they don't even call me to come get him. He almost stepped in front of a car while leaving the hospital. Thank you for making this movie. It was deeply cathartic.
Yo Darious! So stoked to see this finished film! You a beast
Hey Oliver! He sure is!
After watching the movie for a second time, I must say that it was one of the best movies I have seen because it touched my heart for both the son and his mother. The young man had a good upbringing by his mom which showed how much he loved her because he stuck by her showing humanity of his generation which is hard to come by these days. The movie showed that his mom had been a Comedian in her past but somehow lost her connection to her self worth and identity in fitting in to this strange fast paced world which is happening to a lot of seniors who loose their place of prospective after losing support and misplacement in life. This is not only something that is running rapid in America but is an epidemic all over the world. Although, it is something that has not only been taking our older people but people of all ages. Darious you are just the person who addressed the true reality of it all and I do believe this is going to go viral and make you quite famous for addressing it in the manner that you have. I believe you are going to push America to do something about it to make a positive difference in a more positive way before it all falls a part and becomes a 3rd world Country of people undoing themselves by running after the money and throwing their families and others away and going really no where other than to a dead end. My notes about your shooting is that I am also proud of you as a filmmaker and a story teller. I believe you'll be joining the platform very soon with Spike Lee and Tyler Perry as highly qualified. So keep on with your work and ignore any of the jealous negative hecklers which I only saw only a couple of them because you are on your way. I sure would like to see you do a part 2 or even consider looking into doing an ongoing television serious on the subject. The first time I saw your movie was on my Television Blue Ray Channel and now I am going to suggest that all of my family and friends watch. A friend of mine who is a hospital worker said that she saw your movie and she said that she has heard a lot of Americans say that they are in agreement with your mom on that something strange is going on in America. So I think if you do a part 2 to your movie it will be good to put what happened in your mother's life that cause it to change and what are some of the realities to her illusions and are there any merit to them because a lot of people are saying those same things that she is talking about and that too is strange. I'd look into it if I were you. Well I will be looking and hoping to see a second part coming up soon because I am curious about you and your mom. I think because you did this one movie on that subject that you have doors opening to you that will allow you get a lot of funding to do the next one. Please look into it.
So happy to finally have the chance to see it. Go Darious!
As someone that has had to hide kitchen knives from a loved one with mental issues I can totally relate. Love your work and passion for your art.
Powerful, revealing, unsettling, thought provoking and painful to watch. Feelings of empathy and sympathy to your mother, yourself and your support group. The frustration and anxiety that I felt just as a viewer of your film was almost too much to bear so I cannot possibly even imagine what you and others that have to deal with the mentally ill go through. Great work sometimes comes from great pain! 👏🏾🙏🏾
This movie is really good, and I am impressed. I watched the break down of this movie first. The process and hard work that went into making this movie is incredible. It really paid off. Congrats for a job well done!
Watching it now, great so far!! Lol @ 39:46 // Update: Just finished it...bravo, man! I'm not close to anyone with sever mental illness, so I don't have firsthand experience with it, but still...Reggie's frustration was palpable. Oh, and Wolf is a phenomenal actress! Congrats on finishing this project 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Never clicked on anything so fast! Cannot wait to watch this later tonight!!
Last Night, I had every intention on watching something on network TV or cable TV. All those intentions went out the window once I clicked play on “Making Unsound”.
I was glued to my screen for the next 3 hours. Not only did I watch, “Making Unsound”, but I was compelled to immediately watch the movie as well.
You have truly given the world a gift. Your movie gives people a reason to pay more attention to those who deal with the untold affects of mental illness.
Thank you for sharing your process in making this film and thank you for sharing the journey that you and millions of people face daily.
Darious, as professional, I've thoroughly enjoy watching your content. It constantly inspires me. After watching your "making of" and finally watching this I have a much bigger insight to who you are and your journey. Thank you for being vulnerable enough to share this! This film was truly engaging from the start. I originally was going to watch it in segments because of my schedule but I couldn't stop watching. Excellent work! I look forward to seeing what you produce in the future! God Bless!
5 years later...This film is so beautifully heartbreaking. Powerful seems to trite a word to describe the story. And the way you wore so many hats and did it masterfully - bravo, sir. Bravo.
One of the best movies I've seen in a long time, and with an important message. It just goes to show you don't need a huge budget to make a great film. Awesome work man.
This film was randomly suggested and I have to say that this truly hit home.
I had almost the same experience with a loved one I lived with while I was in high school and it was tough.
So thank you for this message.
This is what art and storytelling are for. To inform, inspire and comfort.
Thank you again
-Q
Darious, that was great man! 🙌🏼 I was hooked from the beginning. It’s great to see a TH-cam tutorial channel that has REAL work to back up everything that’s taught. I’ve always loved your content, and it’s helped me SO much in my own filmmaking education to where I finally made and released my first short film (after hearing you say many times to actually go practice the things you taught me). I’m working on my next one now, and this was great motivation once again to see what possible. I don’t have to tell you to keep it up cause I know you’ll keep crushing it! Thanks again for sharing this bro, and EXCELLENT work!!
I just subscribed to you yesterday. Wow both 2 people i admired.
I loved it... I know for me and many others, this film reached right into their soul and brought back the memories that we buried, felt emotions we haven't felt in years, reminded us of how much we've survived and how strong we've become, thank you for that.
This is a fantastic way of sharing a feature film. In this time of day and age an online release where you can reach tons of people is even better than a screening at a festival. This is the future of filmmaking. Great work on the film!
Yup! People aren't going to cinemas anymore unless it's a big film. Most low budget filmmakers have to resort to online. In the end, it's not really about the money.
I have so much to say yet I’m speechless. You honestly did a excellent job on this film; you left nothing out. I learned so much and was deeply moved. The times you were in distress, I wanted so bad for someone to just give you a long hug, rub your back & comfort you.
I know how it feels to take care of a parent and take over the position of being an adult much sooner than you would like; trying to balance your school/ work life and taking care of the household. But your story was on a WHOLE ‘nother level. For that, I applaud you for staying strong throughout everything and being such a great son & human being. Not to mention having the weight of the world on your shoulders as an African-American male not expecting to show emotions.
I truly hope everything is much better with your mother, that she has gotten the help she needs and you’re able to continue achieving your dreams. Thank you for sharing this. Hopefully one day we get to work on something together. Good Luck with everything & God Bless.
P.S. That friend of yours is a keeper.
im watching this in 2019, and I watch the making of UNSOUND, bro keep doing what your doing cause soon or later people like spike lee will be calling and emailing you to work with you or get you in the top rooms to create more creative and powerful and also truth films
Thanks for sharing this intimate story with us, your community. You're greatness! You inspire me!
This is better then any movie i have seen. this is real and it is so understandable even though i dont know anyone like that it was still very true and it has encouraged me to try to start doing things like this on my own on my channel but this story is the best i have ever seen and should have so much more recognition for what its worth. I LOVED IT
I know nothing about filmmaking. I just appreciate the craft. With that being said:
Forget filmmaking...you're an actor!! No seriously, I follow you because of your filmmaking talent but I LOVE you as an actor. The camera loves you!
Dude...intense on multiple levels. New respect. Need music for an upcoming film, let me know.
@losepoundsandinches What?
I love the ending, it just leads off with no dialogue. This is how real filmmakers create movies. Congrats!
Wow! This story is very heartening, Thank you for sharing your story with the world.
I have scene the documentary and the film.. Super movie.. You are awesome man 😍.. Great movie.. This took you 7 years and uploaded it to TH-cam, letting us watch free.. Unbelievable no body bought this.. You are an awesome creator man, and I loved your acting too. Great great great movie you got there.
Darious... I was just watching your tips on your channel because I like the way you explain and show things, but this movie... just made me love you as a person.
T H A N K Y O U
This movie is brilliant. Well done and thanks so much for sharing this on this platform!
Damn dude you're such an inspiration and hugely underrated i love this piece. Thank you
my mother died when I was 21, after a long series of cancers, and at the end, her temper changed, you depict so well and sensibly the complexity of this situation... very touching... your making of, which I watch before, makes it all even more intense.. bravo !!
I clicked sooo fast!
You’ve been such an inspiration in my filmmaking journey Darius
Cancelling sleep and watching this 🙌🏼
The love and care put into this film is so evident from the very beginning. Beautiful story and it takes you on such a journey with Reggie. Incredible performances, beautiful cinematography. Amazing. Thanks for sharing this.
This movie made me cry!!! I just want to say this, D4 you made a hell of a film. And I hope that I make myself good enough to collaborate with you someday!
One day it will find its audience Darious. Thank you for never giving up.
Congrats! I loved the use of those static wide shots and frame within frame type shots. The writing was spot on, almost no scene seemed unnecessary, but what impressed me the most was the way the overall pacing and handling of time the scenes was handled, that's very, very easy to get wrong and you absolutely nailed it. This felt like a very honest, simple (in a very good way) portrayal of a very complex situation.
I've watched this over and over since 2018 and has now become one of my most favorite movies. I love it!!
This made me think and feel so much, lingeringly. Great work and congrats!
This was moving, bro. I really really loved this film. I have someone in my life that's suffering from severe depression and some days are extremely hard. But, I love her with every single being and this film really spoke to me about the hardships around living with someone that is suffering. From the bottom of my heart thank you for making this. This really meant a lot to me. Thank you so much.
Congrats, man! It's a beautiful film!
Amazing work. I felt the emotions of every character as if I was in the movie. That is what I call a true movie man!
To be honest the sound design was a little off, I felt like I was watching a Bad Lip Reading video in some scenes, just a piece of critical feed back.
THANK YOU. All these years of hard work to make this movie, it was worth it. Thank you for sharing your story, this truly helps me.
These shots are great, the acting has been emotionally invested...transitions are superb, if i could like this twice I would.
Amazing movie about an important topic of mental illness and the toll it takes on a family. Good acting, especially loved the great acting by actress To-Ree-Nee Wolf, the story really engaged me, I watched it into the credits. Everything was perfect! Congrats to all who were part of making this movie!
I m watching this in 2019....it was beautiful.....the way the tension in the scene is maintained....just brilliant! This reminded me of joker movie.....this video is beautiful! 7 years of masterpiece compressed into 1 hrs and 33 minutes...
This was brilliant from start to finish. I know this was hard to dive into. Thank you for doing the difficult thing. It's an inspiration to us all. Stay true sir. Well done.
Darious, I just watched your film and the only problem I had was some audio issues. THE FILM WAS SO GOOD THO! I never felt bored and I was always interested in the plot. The characters were really great, Reggie was like a really good cake: layered and thicc. The cinematography was truly fantastic, not only for a TH-cam film but just for any film, the opening shot, with Darylene (think that’s how you spell it) as a silhouette, will go down as one of my favourite shots of all time! Overall really great film!!! Keep ur the great work. I love all your work!
Thank you, we took a lot of time crafting the visual style of the film (from the DP)
Only felt the transition into the title was a little on-the-nose; just the plain shot before the title fade was enough IMO. As for audio, there were a couple times, like the billiard scene, where you can tell the back music is added in post by how it differs from the acoustically from the other sounds. Also, in the scene where he and his mom are at the care center when he pressures her about signing the release, where midway through the scene the ambient lighting and overall vibe of the place noticeably shifts like it was filmed on a different day. But overall, given the limited resources, such issues were handled professionally. Definitely too good for TH-cam.
you know, the most surprising thing is that you acted so damn well, i can see that you made this movie to show us not only your story but your passion for cinema, thank you so much for have done this.
So I just finished watching "UNSOUND", I Love it. For this to be a first time film, coming from another film maker this is not only a great movie. It is inspiring. It gives me the courage to push myself to complete my films. If you can do it so can I. It was very detailed in explain how life is living with mental illness. The acting was also amazing. I could the stress level of all characters. it was so touching I was getting stressed out myself (lol) But honestly great job I speak for everyone when I say we wan't to see more of your work Keep it up Darious I enjoyed your film. Big ups to your cast and crew.

I have been here for 20mins trying to articulate my words to express my emotions towards this movie. I'm left speechless. This movie has made me open my eyes to a new perspective on love and life. THANK YOU !
You should have gotten academy award for this. My Jesus
Your strength is super human
Appreciate you making this film. My sister suffered from schizophrenia. I went through many of the same actions you made with your mother. My sister is no longer here with us. Still don't know how to feel about that. Thanks for sharing your story.

I don’t normally comment on your videos, just watch and am blown away but this moved me in a lot of ways. I saw all of the tips you have given us actually played out but to be honest, after the first 10 min I really stopped noticing that and fell into the story. For never writing a script you can tell this came from somewhere deep in you. The fact that you lived this life makes it even more powerful. Truly blown away.
Good job, man! Good luck with it, hope it gets viewed A LOOOT!
Just finished. Loved the ending. You really fought for her. The beautiful part was when you discovered something new about her past. This film is so intimate and inspirational. Bravo! Bravo!
Honetly, this was hard to watch. Pausing for now, 1/4 into the movie, but definitely coming back to finish this.
Dude. Thank you for this. I felt like I was watching my life with my brother. I appreciate you taking this on. God bless you bro. 🙏🏽
I know I'm late to the party, but I just wanted to say that this is the best low budget film I have ever seen! It's not just good for being low budget, but also tells this story in a great way. Some day, I hope to make something as good as that. Please continue to make all of these awesome projects. You are also such a great TH-camr. I really enjoy your videos. :)
