Afraid? Anxious? Overwhelmed? Numb? Trying to live your silly little life anyway? Us too.

Emotion/Truth tells a story of coming of age as an American during the forever war, inside the heart of the empire, and hurtling full-speed toward fascism and climate collapse. Collaged together verbatim from interviews with thirteen teens and twenty-somethings, common threads emerge in the most mundane experiences - job interviews, getting ready for a night out - as well as in the gooey unknowns of our consciousness. It's weird out here, and we need to know it's weird for you, too.
