11 people living with complex mental health came together to make powerful short films to challenge stigma and undergo therapeutic shifts.

Join us for an evening of 5 short films created through Wondering CIC’s collaborative filmmaking project in partnership with WCL Mind during mental health awareness week.

Over 14 weeks, 11 new filmmakers with lived experience of mental health challenges came together to make powerful biographical films exploring resilience, identity, and mental health. This is the first public screening of their work so please come and join us for a celebration of creativity, storytelling, and community. This work was designed to create therapeutic shifts for the participants so come and here their stories!

The evening will feature:
🎬 60 minutes of short films made by lived-experience filmmakers
🎤 Reflections and conversations with the filmmakers

At Wondering CIC, we believe storytelling, art, and community are essential to addressing the mental health crisis. By placing cameras in the hands of people with lived experience, we empower individuals to own their stories, develop professional skills, and make authentic work that offers an unfiltered insight into the full spectrum of mental health.
