Without waiting for his symptoms to vanish, Buddy is now making the movie of his life - he is both the subject and one of the directors of OC87.
This innovative, funny, and touching documentary champions a message of mental health recovery.


Sky Island has OC87 set to open May 25th in New York and will expand its release throughout the summer.
