Go Mental!

The festival brings together cinema, mental health, and community.

Highlights include:

• A powerful program of international short and feature films

Opening Night with a Star-Studded Lineup

The festival kicks off with two impressive films:

• "Undelivered," a moving drama by David Lester, starring Ann Dowd (The Handmaid's Tale, Hereditary).
• "The Madmen Coach," this year’s winner in the Best Feature Film category, a poignant work by director Carlo Liberatore.

Highlight: Awards Ceremony on Saturday Evening

On Saturday evening, the best short films will be honored during a festive awards ceremony. In addition, the festival creates space for connection: with a donation-based breathwork and journaling session, as well as a community event on film funding in collaboration with Voices With Impact (Vancouver, Canada) and Berlin Film Community.

Go Mental! stands for a new culture of dialogue about mental health—artistic, open, and international.
