The Lunatic

Set during the height of the Occupy Movement of 2011, The Lunatic follows 28-year-old Nell Harding as she starts an experiment to craft a different kind of life for herself. She leaves New York City to return to the Berkshire Hills of her childhood with her dog Argos. Even though Nell's a librarian she's not immune to the lures of online life, and she wonders if absorption is possible in the great age of distraction. Using herself a test subject, she unplugs to see what will happen. What she finds is a life far more challenging, surprising, and - ultimately - rewarding than she could have possibly envisioned.
