Jennifer Brea is an activist and documentary filmmaker from the United States. Unrest, her first feature film, premiered at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival, winning the US Documentary Special Jury Award for Editing. Brea also collaborated on a virtual reality picture that debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival. Brea was a Harvard University PhD student when she became ill with a high temperature and became bedridden.
Her conversion disorder was first undiagnosed, but she was later diagnosed with myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), generally known as chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). She began making a documentary film about her experience from her bed in 2013. It was originally titled “Canary in a Coal Mine,” but it was renamed after a Kickstarter effort that rallied a large online community of other homebound and bedbound patients and their families.
Unrest premiered at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival and aired on January 8, 2018 on PBS’s Independent Lens. The film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Film.
She was in Miami working on a new project. She was last seen in Miami International Airport Wednesday afternoon at about 3:30pm near Gate D37. She was apparently having some kind of mental health crisis and chose not to board her flight. A gate agent asked for an EMT to give her a medical check. Her vitals came back fine and so she was released. She is a black woman, 5 foot 6, with blue eyes and a big smile. She usually has her hair covered.
Her case is now being investigated by a detective in Miami PD’s Missing Persons division. You can contact the City of Miami Missing Person Department at (305) 603-6350.
