IN THE BOX UNDER MY BED

In this deeply personal feature documentary, filmmaker Heather Greer turns the camera on herself in an attempt to heal from her mother’s decades-long depression and eventual suicide.

Ever since learning at the age of 11 that the aunts she thought died from cancer had died by suicide, Heather has been in search of answers. Her initial inquiry was directed at her mother, who found herself giving Heather family photos and letters to try and help her understand the things she could not explain. Heather put the items in a box that she kept under her bed, spending hours by herself going through them in search of clues to her family’s hidden stories.

IN THE BOX UNDER MY BED chronicles Heather’s journey from isolation to reconnection as she excavates the most potent artifacts and unearths the true cost of holding onto them.
