In this short film, musician Mr. Rage reluctantly visits therapist Winona Sheridan, skeptical due to her prior knowledge of his work. As the session unfolds, he confronts deeply buried issues linked to his career pressures, vividly portrayed through flashbacks to his music videos. A climactic outburst forces him to confront his misplaced priorities, surrounding themes from the charting EP ‘Love, Rage + The Vigilante Maestro’ by Fortune Igiebor.
Mr.Rage has found himself at the end of another rollout, more exhausted than ever emotionally. Off the recommendation of a close friend, he’s agreed to meet with a therapist: Winona Sheridan. As she’s familiar with his music from a friend, he takes poorly to this, as he begins to complain of the pre-meditated judgement, which creates a snowball effect into him detailing issues he used to ignore and dismiss. Through their conversation, the LRVM songs/ music videos take us through each period of time where said issue was at its peak. At a moment where he becomes a bubbling pot set to burst, an explosive exit leads to him realising priorities have been mis-ordered, and returns the following day to fully embrace the start of this journey, a healthy relationship with his music career.
