Bress has some very unusual work, and this is by far the weirdest to understand. There are multiple segments given what I would call a flashback. At one point he has in the background of one of the segments: because depression. There is then a coal worker with terrible speech/accent, a heavy man punching the wall, an unknown figure disco dancing, to even a red figure trapped between the mattress and box frames. The title of this video is Status Report, so these characters could be extension and feelings of one man “because of depression.” Depression is taken in 2 basic directions by media outlets. One perspective, it that depression is over diagnosed frequently, and depression is not a real illness. The other viewpoint, is depression is very much real, and for those who suffer, struggle on and off for short to long periods of time.
