The more places we can share our film, the more doors we open for everyone involved — from our cast and crew to the message at the heart of the story.

Why this matters:

This project was born out of the desire to highlight the burden placed on our mental health practitioners and the struggle of patients trying to access mental health services in the uk. We’ve poured our hearts into this film and now, we’re ready to share it with the world by submitting it to film festivals, where it can reach audiences, start conversations, and show the demonstrate the reality of the NHS mental health system.
