Desc: The Cost of Creativity: Directed by Jon Biddle. With Matt Behling, Fran Biddle, Jon Biddle, Steve Biddle. Mania can be a storm of ideas. Depression can feel like a void. Bipolar disorder pushed filmmaker Jon Biddle to the extremes of both. In his documentary 'The Cost of Creativity,' Jon delves into the video and photo archives of his own past, uncovering the portrait of a young artist, a struggling son, a manic boyfriend, and a true friend. Part archival film, part road movie, part impressionistic experimental memoir, 'The Cost of Creativity' blends music, images, words, and memories, forcing the filmmaker to look in the mirror and reconcile the inner demons of living with bipolar disorder.
