A companion piece to 'Alone.' We interviewed Mike after filming him for 'Alone.' His trailer was dingy and smelled like cigarettes. Afterwards, as we drove away, I could feel my spirits lifting--until I thought about Mike, back behind us. I struggled for a while about whether or not to edit this footage into a piece, whether it was exploitive, whether it was the right thing to do or not, but in the end I did it, because it's true. It's not the whole truth of human experience, but it's a piece of it. Music: Aural Method - 'I dreamed of choirs slow and steady. The song was ours, its woe was heavy.'
