Richard Alwyn's intensely moving film, inspired by the experience of his brother-in-law, follows two stroke survivors who can no longer take language for granted.
Fifty years ago, Tim McDermit fell 40 feet from his college dorm roof. He suffered a traumatic brain injury and was diagnosed with aphasia, a language disorder which left him unable to speak. Though 2 million others in the U.S. suffer from aphasia, few have even heard of it. Over the past five decades, Tim has struggled with relearning how to communicate all over again, navigating the social stigmas that come with broken speech, and finally letting go of the life that was snatched away from him.
A single mother suffers a devastating stroke leaving her teenage daughter and 7-year-old son to care for her, testing the family's strength to hold things together as their roles are reversed.
Sarah Taylor grapples with the realization that she, unlike 97% of the world’s population, has no ability to visualize. She has aphantasia, or “mind’s eye blindness”, a condition that makes her unable to conjure images or visual memories in her mind. As an award winning film editor, Sarah has somehow managed to thrive in an overwhelmingly visual medium. To understand how that is possible, she teams up with Anna Cooley, a hyper-visualizer who has a fascination with how brains work and together they set out to tell the story of her non-visual brain... visually. Through interviews with other people with aphantasia and scientists working on the cutting edge of aphantasia research, they explore the differences in how aphants learn, grieve, create, and remember. Invisible Imagination is not just about aphantasia—it’s a celebration of the limitless potential of human creativity, no matter how it manifests.

Learning a language is like falling in love. But when this great linguist's love for a princess was denied, he just fell in love with her 75 times more. The film is about the remarkable life of a poor priest's son – Georg Julius Justus Sauerwein and his life-long love for Princess Elisabeth of Wied, later Queen of Romania.

Based on Sauerwein's letters and other written sources and narrated from the first person, the film merges the classic fairytale with documentary realism, both in script and visual design, pushing the boundaries of documentary.
