A character suffering from dissociative identity disorder has been portrayed in many films, here is an article listing 'The 15 Best Movies About Multiple Personality Disorder'.
One of my favourite films on the list is 'Fight Club', a film about an insomniac who meets a soap salesman. The two men start a 'fight club', allowing people to fight recreationally, the club eventually becomes an anti-materialist, anti-corporate organisation. We later learn that these two men are dissociated personalities in the same body.
Throughout the film there are extremely quick, 'blink and you'll miss it', flashes that appear on screen. I think that these flashes show the fragile mind of the character, adding an element of confusion for the audience. This is an idea that our group was inspired by, we hope to incorporate similar flashes in our two minute opening.
