Join communities around the world on 29 April 2016 for the global premiere of a new social action documentary exploring different perspectives on psychosis and mental illness.

Directed by PJ Moynihan of Digital Eyes Film, Healing Voices is a feature length documentary exploring the real-life stories of individuals working to overcome extreme mental states, and integrate these experiences into their lives in meaningful ways. The film follows three subjects – Orynx, Jen and Dan – over a period of nearly five years and features interviews with international experts such as Robert Whitaker, Dr Bruce Levine, Will Hall, Marius Romme and others on the history of psychiatry and the rise of the ‘medical model’ of mental health treatment.

Healing Voices challenges us to rethink our cultural understanding of mental illness by bringing a message of recovery, and charting a course for effective alternative treatments that enable people to live productive and meaningful lives.

A ‘One Night, One Voice’ event on and around 29 April 2016 will see the release of Healing Voices via grass roots, non-theatrical screening and discussion events across the world. For more information about these events, you can visit the film’s official website or follow its progress on Twitter.
