Well-educated, New Hampshire mother, Linda Bishop becomes a prisoner of her own mind in this evocative account of mental illness and of our failure to protect those suffering from it.

“Some of the most beautiful cinematography to ever be seen in a documentary. Pure poetry.”  – Digital Journal

“God Knows Where I Am is one of those rare, beautiful films that has the courage to dwell in its own sadness. This is the kind of documentary that inspires.” – Missoula Independent

Well-educated, New Hampshire mother, Linda Bishop, was determined to stay free of the mental health system after her early release from a 3 year commitment to New Hampshire State Hospital. Instead, she became a prisoner of her own mind, a fate which is documented in one of the most evocative and chilling accounts of mental illness and of our systemic failure to protect those suffering from it.
