Marcia Kimpton, director, writer, producer, and actress in Bardo Blues, describes the inspiration behind the film: “I spent a year and a half writing the story with Anthony Taylor. It’s a very personal story about me being an artist, about depression, and about my brother being an artist and dealing with mental illness. ​This is a semi-autobiographical story, and I knew I had to shoot in Thailand because I loved the landscape, the people, the food, and Buddhism. So I went over to Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai for location scouting and to look for Thai actors because I wanted an 'East Meets West' multicultural film.” Marcia is proud to bring this film to life as it touches on issues close to home because the story is inspired by her brother’s real-life struggles with mental illness.
