'Angst' Movie Screening & Discussion

Date

This course was held on September 20, 2018

Presenter

Daniel Villiers, PhD, President, Founder with Linda Geiger, Anxiety Institute

Join us for a viewing and discussion about the film ‘Angst’.

About the film: Producers Scilla Andreen and Karin Gornick have one goal: to start a global conversation and raise awareness around anxiety. Through candid interviews, they utilize the power of film to tell the stories of kids and teens who discuss their anxiety and its impact on their lives and relationships, as well as how they’ve found solutions and hope. In addition, the documentary provides discussions with mental health experts about the causes of anxiety and its sociological effects, along with the help, resources and tools available to address the condition.
