Screening the Film
Interested in screening The Inmates? The MPA Founders who made the film want it to be shown to people who work in mental health and use mental health services. They are particularly interested in youth audiences, and in using the film as a demonstration of the importance and potential of peer-led and peer-directed mental health services.
Groups and individuals wishing to screen the film are welcome to download and use this poster and screen the film from our Youtube channel. If you want a DVD copy of The Inmates, or need someone to come and speak about the documentary or the history of MPA, please contact Megan Davies, producer of The Inmates, c/o madness@yorku.ca
With a screening time of 36 minutes, The Inmates works well combined with a panel discussion of themes and questions raised by story of the early MPA. Facilitators can make use of discussion materials used in our linked teaching pages History in Practice/ Histoire en tête.
