NAMI Wilkes-Barre and Janssen, L.P. Presents
out of the shadow
Directed, produced and photographed by Susan Smiley,
this very personal documentary, chronicles the filmmaker’s
mother, Millie, and her family through Millie's battles with schizophrenia
and her subsequent trials with the mental health system. A story
of madness and dignity, shame and love, this intimate film illuminates
a national plight through one family's struggle and helps dispel
the stigmas and misconceptions surrounding this harrowing illness.
When: Thursday, April 20, 2006 - 6:00 p.m.
Where: Kirby Center for the Performing Arts
71 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre
Light refreshments will be served
A panel discussion and question and answer session will follow
the screening
