Mark Vicente on: Apartheid, Cults, and Narcissists
Description
Mark Vicente is an NXIVM cult whistleblower and survivor, an author, speaker, and award-winning Writer, Director and Producer from Johannesburg, South Africa. Because of the atrocities in his native South Africa, he found himself propelled to question certain fundamental assumptions at a very young age. Mark has developed a keen and passionate interest in exposing the coercive and duplicitous environments of high-control groups. He is currently in post-production on ‘Empathy Not Included’ (The Narcissist’s Playbook) a feature-length documentary exploring one of the most pervasive and often misunderstood mental pathologies in our culture: Narcissism. Shot in seven countries and viewed through the lens of four self-confessed, self-aware malignant narcissists who openly share the secrets of how they operate with uncensored candor, the film follows their disturbing stories, juxtaposed with the growing body of wisdom from victims, survivors, scientists, and mental health professionals.
