At times I think myself and my family are hoarders, unable to get rid of things because we just might need them. But then I watched this amazing film – POSSESSED by Martin Hampton – and realised we weren’t so bad.
Hampton’s documentary looks into the homes and lives of four OCD sufferers, whose symptoms come out as an inability to let go of possessions. It’s beautiful, haunting stuff and certainly makes you wonder about things like “who are we when we let everything in our lives go?”, and “how much impact do we have on this world in a lifetime?”, as well as “how many 3G phones do you really need?”
