Literary scholar and filmmaker Jon Lance Bacon will screen the award-winning 'Oh Crappy Day,' a short romantic comedy with a psychological twist. The 18-minute film depicts a college student struggling to keep his OCD on the down low while on a blind date. The film springs from Bacon's own experience dealing with OCD, a condition that made him feel, for a long time, as if he were just too odd to find love and acceptance. Intended for a general audience, the screening will be followed by a discussion about film as a vehicle for positive depictions of people with OCD.
