Films, Facts and Fallacies About Mental Health: Of Two Minds screening
2017-Mar-13 @ 18:30 - 19:59
FreeIn the Rehab Center Auditorium at the Rochester Psychiatric Center is a screening of Of Two Minds (Douglas Blush, Lisa J. Klein, U.S. / France / Canada 2012, 89 min.) followed by a brief discussion led by Dr. Laurence Guttmacher.
"Of Two Minds" explores the extraordinary lives, struggles and successes of three unique and compelling people living with bipolar disorder in America today. Through a combination of intimate verite and revealing interviews, we experience what it feels like to be bipolar – from exquisite feelings of grandiosity and sensuality to the depths of despair and depression. A journey from the painful to the painfully funny, "Of Two Minds" puts a human face on the illness, opening an engaging, harrowing and perception-changing view on those all around us who live in bipolar's shadows…our sisters and brother, parents and friends, and ourselves.
