The documentary 'In Whose Name?' presents an unfiltered portrayal of Ye, chronicling his life over six years. Directed by Nico Ballesteros, who began filming Ye in 2019, it captures moments from his Sunday Service to his presidential ambitions and includes the impact of his bipolar diagnosis and controversial public actions. The trailer features Ye discussing his mental health and includes commentary from Kim Kardashian about his transformation. The film's premise revolves around the interplay of art and personal struggles faced by Ye, aiming to provide audiences with a comprehensive view of his journey.
"I'm off my meds for five months now," Ye says at the start of the trailer. Then, Kim Kardashian's voice cuts in, saying, through tears, that his "personality was not like this a few years ago." Over shots of Ye in various locales, in front of post-modern architecture, and surrounded by sneakers, the past six years are traced from his Sunday Service to his presidential run to some of the most alarming and offensive stunts of his career. 'Ya know the best part of being an artist and bipolar? Anything you do and say is an art piece.'
For a shy kid, the camera became both a shield and a window, a way to channel my introspection while still engaging with the world. Ye has always had someone filming him, too, a lens between him and the noise. Maybe that's why we understood each other without saying much. I was able to fade into the background, stay present, the camera always rolling, catching moments outside the public performance.
