Of course love is enough, for love.  Not for everything.


Another dream, in fragments:
I was at an abandoned summer camp in the gulf - It's reminiscent of the place I stumbled upon while exploring Fontainebleau State Park in Mississippi with my americorps team, in waders with sharp metal divels for tree planting or water moccasin killing.

A film in which the characters are confronted with the fact that their realities are fundamentally flawed.  Examples include a person with ocd, an alcoholic, a binge eater, and someone who sabotages relationships.  They keep trying to fix things in the same way that is fucking them up.  Contrary and important analogies are people who are on their own trip but are very functional and not bothered or even self aware, and technology which is consistent and flawless, but also mimics some of the intractability that bothers the first group. The film attempts to show the very worst of personal character and also redeem it, but make it appear that the director has done a poor job redeeming it.
