ISPS-US invites you to join us for a powerful documentary screening and live Q&A event that challenges perceptions on mental health and "psychosis."
Drunk on Too Much Life is an intimate and powerful documentary following the filmmaker's 21-year-old daughter’s mind-opening journey from locked-down psych wards and diagnostic labels towards expansive worlds of creativity, connection and greater meaning. Through conversations with advocates and experts by experience such as Sascha Altman DuBrul and the late Kevin Healey, as well as trauma expert Dr. Gabor Maté, the family begins to question the widespread idea that mental illness should be understood in purely biological terms. They learn the myriad ways that madness has meaning that goes far beyond brain chemistry.
