Mentality | Mental Health Documentary
This film tracks the evolution of mental health treatment through the stories of patients and professionals across the Great Lakes. Over their lifetimes, they have watched America’s mentality about psychiatric illness change and treatment options greatly improve. But in a society that leaves millions of people with mental illness untreated, on the streets, or in prison, how far have we really come since the days of the asylums?
By interviewing a variety of individuals who have experienced mental illness, we've aimed to shed light on the topic and provide an understanding of the hardships many people face. It is my sincere hope that, through viewing this film, viewers will gain an appreciation for the struggles of those with mental health difficulties, as well as an appreciation for the importance of seeking help when needed.
A passion project that I chipped away at in my spare time starting in 2018 and finally finishing in January of last year.
