Filming and Full Length Documentation Edit
The Crying Room: Exhumed conjures a world of hyperspiritualists, clairvoyeurs, psychobabble and cybergrief. Prophecies will be scried and spectres will be divined – all for a nominal fee. But some fortunes ought to remain untold, and even the dead are buried with their mobile phones.
In this deeply personal and form-bending adaptation of his award-winning online work The Crying Room, Marcus Ian McKenzie scours infinite planes in search of his lost brother.
