There was a time when I looked in the mirror, and I could see nothing.

White Moon is a program Joe Frank produced as part of the series Somewhere Out There. It was originally broadcast on April 13, 1996.

Synopsis

Joe is an invisible bank teller, discussing the end of a relationship with god, counting the cobblestones in a restaurant, looking at the moon from a cemetery in war, teeth chattering and seizure fantasy in the first person. Joe becomes a self-trained rock-star-like doctor, coffins in the hospital gift shop, operating in a kitchen, description of a cemetery, raising the dead with sex, a psychiatrist's office in a fake railroad car beside scenery painted on the back of a Torah, diseases destroying their hosts and meditation on time.
