Labeled Film Fest

Severe Persistent Mental Illness (SPMI) plagues 97,000 Utahns annually. The battles and struggles caused by mental illness are real, and its influence upon our community is felt by many. ‘LABELED’ will showcase thought-provoking films that explore mental health issues from numerous perspectives. It’s designed to bring together a community of health providers, government agencies, educators, policy makers, caregivers, and individuals who want to better understand and support those with mental illness.

Contrary to popular belief, mental illness is NOT a fault, NOT a weakness, NOT a lack of character, NOT hopeless... It's an illness. This festival will spotlight stories of humanity through profound documentaries, film shorts, animations and full-length features. Also engage in 20-minute, post-screening discussion panels with selected filmmakers, mental health professionals, or those living with SPMI.

In a culture that stigmatizes people living with mental illness, LABELED Mental Health Film Festival challenges audiences to understand the person behind the labels. Stereotypically, movies portray those with mental illness as outcasts, debilitated, isolated, dependent, dangerous, unpredictable, comedic, annoying and incompetent.

LABELED strives to humanize them as, chances are, you know someone who is touched by mental illness.
