Classics, History
Tortured Mind is a raw, unfiltered look at the psychological scars left by trauma, incarceration, and violence. Directed by Seth Ferrante and produced by Outlaw Films, the documentary dives deep into the lives of individuals battling mental illness within the criminal justice system.
Drawing from his own time behind bars, Ferrante brings authenticity and empathy to the screen, blending interviews, archival footage, and stylized visuals to tell stories too often ignored. This is not just a film about mental illness—it’s about survival, identity, and the human cost of being forgotten.
Tortured Mind challenges viewers to see the people behind the diagnoses and the resilience behind the pain.
