Yeah it is on DVD, its by Ben Selkow go to www.cagethemovie.com

It is very real and very confronting in many ways that you would never expect. Well for me it was. I expect for everyone it would be different.

I am interested to know what other bipolar suffers think of it...

Oh.. I am not sure if it is available to rent. I doubt it.

But you can buy it. I got it and I live in Aus. It just cost me more Smile

It is an independant film, but making its way up I think.

No directly from the director Ben Selkow www.cagethemovie.com

If you go to the website you will be able to see how to order it.

Its just a small independant film so I dont think they sell through many places
