DIRECTORS VISION

“Mental health is a global problem and we need a global re- sponse”. When I read this quote, I ́ve been already through dozens and dozens of books and papers, initially out of cas- es in my family that affected me like a tsunami on a peace- ful island. This was when I had to get aware, that mental illness is a stigma or a reason for discrimination, best case an extremely underrated topic in our modern world.

 

Even I had to learn, how inappropriately it ́s viewed, not only in society, but also how the medical and legal system handle it, because society, mostly repress the problem, the health system is mainly focused on the symptoms and the law, best case, is lagging generations behind.
