Alice Li and I spent the summer of 2013 in China to create a documentary exploring the difficult process of social reintegration for those formerly hospitalized for mental illness in Beijing. Told from the perspective of three people -- a patient, his doctor and a social worker -- the film takes a deep look at the role community plays in an individual's struggle to overcome stigma, establish a sense of identity and ultimately find a home. Made with support from the Eric Lund Global Reporting Fund and Northwestern University's Undergraduate Research Grant.
Houston is a cruel, crazy town on a filthy river in East Texas with no zoning laws and a culture of sex, money and violence. It’s a shabby, sprawling metropolis ruled by brazen women, crooked cops and super-rich pansexual cowboys who live by the code of the West — which can mean just about anything you need it to mean, in a pinch.

"Update--August 16 11:40 a.m.: Detective Brent Akin of the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office retrieved the package from the Houston Press Friday afternoon. Akin met us in a large conference room where the package was being held, and he asked us about the contents before donning gloves and placing the package in a brown evidence bag. He did not inspect the contents at our office. We'd been contacted by local and national media within minutes of the story going online, and a gaggle of news crews were in our offices by the time Akin arrived; they waited in a hallway and shot footage through the room's windows. Akin did not speak with reporters, but the Press gave several interviews after he left."
