Dreams, black holes, a special door, a golden room...
A young patient reinvents his experience of being in the hospital through metaphor and allusion. Responding to "what if" questions, Andrew exemplifies the transformative qualities of fantasy, empathy, and humor.
The Golden Room is the first in your series of Bedtime Stories. How did you... dream up the idea?
This hour: two amazing musicians explored through the portal of two amazing documentaries.
This hour: a young patient escapes his hospital bed through flights of imagination, a musician documents a city under siege, and more.
This hour: stories that bend, stretch, and downright fabricate the truth.
