I appreciated the opportunity to discuss mental health, our justice system, human rights, and the intersection of the three with documentary filmmakers Isabelle Depelteau and Dan Shannon of ID Vision Films today. Their thoughtful approach and insightful questions will make for a film that focuses much needed attention on these very important topics.
I look forward to hearing the important stories of the individuals profiled in the film, learning from the perspectives of all the other interviewees, and sharing the film in our community. Thanks to the filmmakers for inviting me to participate.
