Watch: Touched with Fire 2015 123movies, Full Movie Online – Carla and Marco lead somewhat parallel lives, albeit in different ways. Both suffer from bipolar disorder. Both channel especially their manic periods into art in both being poets, Carla published. Both decide unilaterally to go off their medication in wanting to feel instead of being in a numb state. Both have parents in their lives – Marco only his father – who love them and want them to be well, although their parents have a different view of what is best for them than they do. And both have an obsessive focus on an orb – Carla the sun, Marco the moon – although part of the obsession for both is the light associated with it. Where they differ is that Carla wants to discover more about her illness in being told when she was diagnosed in her early adulthood that there was some sort of trigger in her life, what that issue was she doesn’t know, while Marco sees his being as who he inherently is, which he believes is someone not of this Earth. Although they come into the situation in a different manner, they meet when they are both admitted to the same psychiatric hospital under the care of Dr. Strinsky.

As their want to feed off each other is in that manic state, they may face the challenge not only of Dr. Strinsky and their parents not seeing their relationship as a healthy one, but whether they themselves can sustain a relationship with each other in such a state, especially in needing to have some sense of responsibility for each other..
Plot: Two young poets with bipolar disorder begin a highly passionate, volatile relationship that threatens both their futures.

A realistic portrayal
Love and mania and the love of mania — these are some of the powerful themes explored in this gritty movie about bipolar states of being. The fine script inspired solid performances from the lead and supporting cast alike. They wanted to make this movie and gave it everything they had to tease out the difficult material that was presented in this film. It will probably not be to everyone’s taste but if you are looking for a movie that challenges you to examine what society calls ‘mental illness’ and how that label affects those thus labeled and the difficult relationships that these people have with those who love them most, “Touched with Fire” is definitely a show that you want to check out.

It would be too depressing to make a movie that hews too close to reality when it comes to the bipolar mind because an unwatchable tragedy just seems inevitable; “Touched with Fire” takes the audience close to where they would turn away but manages to inject enough hope to keep you going. And that is the central tension in the film — a glimmer of hope when all appears to be lost. Many people would disagree and say that this picture is too depressing, but I tend to think that these people want movies to narcotize them with a massive dose of feel-goodism.

Otherwise, for the few grown ups out there, this movie is worthy of your time.
