What do you do when no one and nothing can help you?
Deprivation is a story about refusing to let go, refusing to forget, refusing to renounce — even when it is no longer in your power. It is a story about love that refuses to give up, even when your own mind tells you to.
Instead of blasphemous attempts to "come to terms with reality," instead of the treacherous efforts to reject any memory of the past, of the happiness that was taken from you, instead of feelings-numbing depressants, instead of useless soul-baring, instead of the saccharine crocodile tears of family and acquaintances — you decide to stop running. To stop hiding. To stop "curing love."
