b'
A Little Bit Culty \\u2013
It sure is good to see Mark Vicente back in the saddle again. In Part 2, he shares what happened during his last conversation with Keith Raniere, how he\\u2019s defragged his brain since he helped burn ol\\u2019 Dead Eyes\\u2019 playhouse down, and what the bleep he\\u2019s working on next. Oh, and there is bountiful ass-chapping.
More about today\\u2019s guest:\\xa0 Author, speaker, and award-winning director Mark Vicente was behind the sleeper hit \\u201cWhat The Bleep Do We Know?!\\u201d Born in South Africa in 1965, Mark took his first photograph at age four and discovered his passion for being behind the camera. After working his way up the ranks of the camera department, his first big break came as Cinematographer on the musical \\u201cSARAFINA,\\u201d starring Whoopi Goldberg. In 1992, he relocated to Los Angeles to shoot his first studio picture for Disney entitled \\u201cFATHERHOOD\\u201d From a very young age he found himself propelled to question beliefs about the human condition. His filmmaking activism led him to make a number of films, including \\u2018Encender el Corazon\\u2019, about the rampant kidnapping epidemic in Mexico. It was a bittersweet victory; the film touched people deeply, but was by association supporting NXIVM.\\xa0 He made the difficult decision to pull the film from distribution and, with a small band of whistleblowers, expose their criminal enterprise.\\xa0
Mark\\u2019s since developed a keen\\xa0 interest in exposing the coercive and duplicitous environments of high-control groups. His memoir: \\u2018QUEST\\u2019 or \\u2018How the BLEEP did that happen?!\\u2019 will be released shortly. It chronicles the many untold stories of what occurred in NXIVM , as well as he and his wife Bonnie\\u2019s harrowing campaign to escape and expose the organization.\\xa0 He\\u2019s also in production on a film about malignant narcissism, narcissistic abuse, and trauma bonding which exposes abusive strategies. He\\u2019s still looking for real life stories for his film, anyone who would like to share their story can reach out to him at his official website.
