A journey into the consciousness of Jamie a woman diagnosed with multiple personality disorder. A documentary of an experimental stage performance that invited audiences to enter, witness and interact with each of the eight personalities. Jamie, the host, and all the others, Rita, Misty, Patty, Magick, Bobby, Cleopatra, Marta, and James reveal, manage, and ultimately celebrate the uniqueness of their being.

The action takes us on a disturbing, high-energy, graphic experience that is like attending a heady African American Studies lecture on the set of a blaxploitation film, performed in a former Dallas drug house. Paint chips and discarded plywood litter the broken sidewalk that leads from the empty back parking lot through knee-high weeds to the house where local performance art collective Dead White Zombies' newest site-specific performance installation takes place. Video projections play on various monitors. Loud Rap music surrounds us. Mama is cooking and cleaning in the kitchen.
