Everything they tried helped. None of it lasted.

A documentary following two people through a supervised protocol built on neuroscience, contemplative practice, and a compound now in FDA-authorized Phase 3 trials. It documents the part nobody films: what happens in the weeks after.

THE FILM

Years of looking for something that would hold.

Nicholas and Fehren Kusmich spent years searching for something that would actually hold. Every weekend that felt profound had faded by Tuesday. They were looking for something that changed the wiring underneath.

Includes the live panel, special guests
+ a 72-hour replay window.

What they built is a multi-month protocol: neuroscience, indigenous practice, clinical oversight, and a molecule that opens a window in the brain most people never knew existed. The window stays open for a limited time. What you do inside it decides whether anything sticks.

UNBECOMING follows real people through that window. Not experts describing it. People living it — the part before, the part during, and the harder part after.

It won't show you something new. It'll strip away everything that isn't you.

5-Me0 is now in FDA-authorized Phase 3 development for depression, after mid-stage trials showed rapid and durable effects from a single dose. This is the first documentary to follow real people through it.

Who's in the film

And the live panel on premiere night

includes the world's leading neuroscientist on consciousness, a reincarnate Buddhist lama, a Mexican shaman, an Emmy-award-winning film director and the creator of the protocol.

Plus a special guest joining live — announced closer to the premiere.

No. UNBECOMING documents a supervised, clinically overseen protocol. It is not instruction, and nothing in the film or the panel should be taken as medical advice.
Your ticket includes a 72-hour replay window, so you can watch the film on your own schedule. The live panel and conversation only happen once, live.
The film moves to streaming platforms after the premiere. The premiere event — the panel, the conversation, the room — is a one-time thing.
An internet connection and any device with a browser. You'll get a link and instructions by email immediately after checkout.
Yes. One ticket, one household.
