    Brief synopsis

    Seven Levels Deep is a short movie that explores the possibilities of a therapy session going deeper than intended.

    A visual depiction of a heroines journey through her own darkness. All the shadows are familiar, still threatening.

    Is there a catharsis after the breaking point?
