Elizabeth, a patient in a psychiatric institution, is forced to retell the details of her traumatic sexual assault story. Stuck in a cycle of reliving this horrifying experience, she struggles to battle her trauma responses. “It’s not me, it’s you” is an original fictional work that attempts to showcase the repercussions in the mental health of sexual assault victims while additionally demonstrating how psychiatric institutions do not always safeguard and prioritize the safety and wellbeing of their patients. 

The story, all names, characters, and incidents portrayed in this film are fictitious. There is no intended resemblance to any actual person (living or deceased), places, buildings, and products nor should any be inferred.
