A powerful, deeply human documentary that confronts the crisis of severe mental illness in the United States. Weaving personal experience with cultural critique, the film spotlights families navigating both personal and administrative challenges, the growing movement demanding reform, and the people too often ignored by a failing mental health system. Narrated by Bob Odenkirk with music by Jeff Tweedy, it's a gripping, timely, and emotionally resonant exploration of stigma, care, and hope.

88/100
A wake up call for people who care about crazy people, likely preaching to the choir in an attempt to get the choir to sing louder about a largely still ignored epidemic in this country that affects more than we’d like to admit. Go to Full Review

Robin C @RCarrlaw 5d Nobody Cares About Crazy People is compelling, heartbreaking, and hopeful. I watched much of it with tears streaming down my face, knowing how many of these stories would end. At its center is Ron Powers and his family. Dean Powers speaking so openly about his illness & the loss of his brother was deeply moving. Scenes with Honoree were especially difficult, knowing the family would later endure another unimaginable tragedy. The participants were remarkably brave. Carmelo and Kendra Burgos and their sons shared their struggles with extraordinary honesty. Comments like "It’s the whole family’s illness," and "I’m tired of being tired" capture a central truth: serious mental illness affects entire families. The Rippee family’s support of Mark was inspiring. The story of Miles Hall showed how tragedy can become a catalyst for change. Painful, honest, and unforgettable, this documentary shines a light on realities too often hidden from view. Thank you to all who shared their stories.
