A documentary following two people through a supervised protocol built on neuroscience, contemplative practice, and a compound now in clinical 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. What felt profound on Saturday, faded by Tuesday. They were looking for something that changed the wiring underneath.

What they built is a multi-month protocol: neuroscience, contemplative understandings, 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. You're taken inside the actual experiences where cameras rarely go.

It won't show you something new. It briefly removes the thing doing the looking.

5-MeO is being studied in clinical trials. This is the first documentary to follow real people through it.

The part nobody films.

UNbecoming is a documentary. It records what specific people experienced and said during a period of their lives. It is not medical or psychological advice, not a recommendation of any substance or protocol, and not a claim that anything shown in the film will happen for anyone else. It is not a substitute for consultation with a qualified health professional.
