Petals of a Rose: Dissociative Identity Disorder Accurately Portrayed

Film realistically depicting a day in the life of a woman with dissociative identity disorder (DID) in an engaging and educational way.

Video Description

“Dylan grew up with a mother who has Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). Given that DID has often been inaccurately and negatively portrayed in film and television, Dylan envisioned and created this film to realistically depict a day in the life of a woman with DID in an engaging and educational way.

There are two versions of the film. The full version contains a scene of intimacy and a flashback to childhood sexual abuse that might be too intense for some viewers. Therefore, a second version was created with this scene removed.

Subtitles are currently available in English, Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Japanese, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Turkish, and Ukrainian. Coming soon in: Polish.”
