Painter Viviane Silvera uses art to explore memory and PTSD, animating 30,000 images to provide a visualization of the brain’s process of forming, altering, and storing memories. The art is combined with narration based on breakthroughs in neuroscience research by Nobel Laureate Eric Kandel and other scientists to show how we can bridge the conscious and the conscious brain and heal trauma.

This film was made possible by the generous support of The Friends of the Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior at UCLA, The Charles E. Kubly Foundation, Erase PTSD Now, and hundreds of individual donors.
