Desc: The Dark and the Wounded: Directed by James Picard. With James Picard. In this moving documentary, Artist/filmmaker James Picard directs us to acknowledge the demons that are within ourselves, the history we have with it and the decision to either move forward towards healing these deep wounds as individuals or continue on a path that may just lead to the destruction of the world in which we live. In The Dark and The Wounded we see the world at its tipping point between ruin and recovery, a point of no return.
