WASTE OF FILM – TRAVIS YOUNG

If you or someone you know is thinking about or have been impacted by suicide, we’re here to help.

In the award winning documentary entitled “Waste of Film,” the artist Travis Young tells the story of his unimaginably grim youth, his ensuing depression and two suicide attempts—and how he reclaimed his own unique outlook on life through the lens of a camera. Travis shoots pictures everywhere he goes and develops the film in his Kansas City apartment, using photography not only as art and vocation, but as a therapeutic practice to frame the events and emotions of his life with context and understanding.
