Description

[Machine Translation] Cannes is going crazy! Sundance is raving! A documentary that shook the world! Backed by John Cameron Mitchell and Gus Van Sant, a new talent has been born! Tarnation" means "damnation" or "ruin". Jonathan's once beautiful mother suffers from mental illness, the split between body and soul caused by the disease of "alienation syndrome," which he himself suffered from, and his sexuality as a gay man, all of which are described with innovative imagery. At the same time, the universal message of his abiding love for his mother and the strong bond between parent and child are strongly conveyed in the film. This is a documentary of the soul that candidly describes the pain-filled, epic life of Jonathan. The film is a personal movie made with i-Movie, and its ultra-low budget of only $218 was also a big hit.
