The Open (trailer)

The Open is about learning to embrace your anxiety through the notion of childlike play, instead of battling it. The film features a creative woman, a dancer, suffering from anxiety disorder. She battles her own anxiety on a tennis court in a match against herself. One side of the court represents her anxious state – she is trapped and not in control. The other side shows her in a state of childlike play – fearless, unafraid, joyful and free. She gradually learns to embrace her anxiety instead of battling it and it helps her to achieve. At the end of the film she is whole.
