The Alternative Perspectives Film Series – designed to bring people in a variety of roles within the community together to look at ways beyond our standard paradigm to understand distress and how to support people through it – will return this fall. Each screening is followed by community dialogue led by someone directly involved with the film’s making. The first two films will be:
SEPTEMBER: ‘Crazy’ by Lise Zumwalt, a documentary about forced psychiatric ‘treatment’. www.alternet.org/culture/crazy-courageous-documentary-about-forced-psychiatric-treatment
NOVEMBER: ‘Crazywise’ by Phil Borges and Kevin Tomlinson, a documentary about spiritual and transformative interpretations of ‘crisis’. www.crazywisefilm.com
Additional films being scheduled include A Drop of Sunshine, Cause of Death, and
Letters to Generation RX.
