In/Out After OCD

Last year, Lee Ching scored high with her directorial debut, OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder). She used her own ailments and the experiences they afford as the impetus to create that piece. She kicks off 2019 with In/Out which also deals with something personal to her. She says, “I have been diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome, Attention Deficit Disorder, Generalised Anxiety Disorder and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. And because of Tourette’s, my executive function differs distinctly from many. [T]he subject matter [of being stigmatised, bullied, excluded] hits very close to home. It explores the inclusion and exclusion of a girl who is different.”
