Seven years earlier, an 18 year ALICIA was seriously injured in a car accident. It was her brain rather than her body which suffered. This tells the story of her long journey of recovery. Not content with just regaining a 'normal life', Alicia pursues her original dream of becoming an actress. Through Beth, the main character from Sam Shepard's play A Lie of the Mind, Alicia is able to express the common experiences of brain injury, her alienation from society for being different and her lack of inhibitions. Alicia's behavior is often deemed unacceptable; she can be seen to sometimes use her brain-injury as a justification for her uncontrolled emotions. Through her exaggerated experiences, we are given a candid insight into the other side that inhabit us all. Flashbacks, dreams, Alicia's video diary, interviews told with heart and extraordinary honesty by her family, friends, medical practitioners, healers and theatre colleagues; all contribute to unmask and reveal the many faces of Alicia.
