PROJECT

CARRYING CAPACITY

CHALLENGE

Explore the transformative relationship between neuroscientist Karl Deisseroth and his patients, in adapting the book Projections: The New Science of Human Emotion into film.

OUR ROLE

We produced development materials, including the short film Carrying Capacity: The fortuitous meeting of a neurodivergent Silicon Valley computer engineer suffering from panic attacks and a talented young neuroscientist leads to a discovery that deepens our understanding of human expression across the autism spectrum. The film premiered at the Vail Film Festival in 2023, where it won in the best short doc category.
