Psychosis HIT film screening

Ballyman is an autobiographically inspired short film by Faruq Adigun exploring the parallels between psychosis and spirituality, co-directed and co-produced with Roisin Feeny (Sounds Like Chaos). Ballyman follows Deji, a young Black man from South East London, as he traverses through the city hiding behind his (bally) balaclava. As his mental state declines, he is forced to shield away from the world, stepping onto his new path of enlightenment.

In the Real is an observational documentary by Conor McCormack, filmed over two years in collaboration with the Bristol Hearing Voices Network. In the Real goes to the heart of the voice-hearing experience. Who, or what, are the voices that only these men can hear? What do they say and what do they mean? And how does hearing voices transform their sense of self and world?

The film screening will be followed by a Q&A with the producers. Tea and coffee will be provided.
