The House We Lived In
Please consider Pre-Ordering the film. It’s a massive piece of support for us and the film. If we can get enough pre-orders it will help get the film on Netflix and other larger platforms. Our mission is to spread awareness of brain injuries and what happens to both the survivor and the family. We watched a documentary titled “Life.Support.Music” when my dad was in a coma and it gave all of us some much needed hope. We want to help provide that same type of hope for other families. We also know this film helps with folks healing from trauma and so many other challenges in life. We appreciate your support in the last 12 years making the film, from both the filmmaking team and the entire O’Donnell family. No Quit!

The House We Lived In
A decade in the making, a young filmmaker confronts memory, family, and recovery as he chronicles his father‘s journey to recover lost memories following a traumatic brain injury. Using experimental approaches with projected installations he attempts to find those missing memories in hopes of finding the dad he used to know. As memories return in the form of dreams the family struggles with acceptance of this new version of their father.
Twin Seas Media has partnered with Pixela Picture Films on an impact campaign for THE HOUSE WE LIVED IN to spark meaningful conversations that engage nationwide audiences around the realities of traumatic brain injury and the ripple effects of such injuries, both emotional and financial, on families.
Contact us to learn more about hosting a screening with your organization or institution followed by a conversation with the subject Tod O’Donnell and/or award-winning filmmaker Tim O’Donnell.
