The nine-day festival showcases 20+ programs with almost 40 feature and short films, a multi-media installation exhibition and full day symposium with a spotlight on television and addiction. Most screenings are followed by a discussion with artists, mental health professionals and/or people with lived mental health experience.

These diverse viewpoints capture the global discussion surrounding mental health and encourage the breakdown of stigma across many cultures.
