Unfiltered for Mental Health Week
Unfiltered is a 30-minute lived-experience documentary exploring the intersectionality of mental health challenges.
It follows the experiences of 7 Western Australians navigating mental health challenges across diverse communities and identities. This is not a glossy, inspirational narrative. It is a brave, human, and deeply honest look at what it means to survive, advocate, and thrive in systems that aren’t conducive to it.
It is an exciting collaboration, brought to you by Rachael Burns (Founder of Integrity Initiative) and Lily Gresele (Founder of How To Be Well). Lily and Rachael are both young people in Boorloo who have founded and operate grassroots, Lived Experience mental health enterprises and who have experience in film, media, and content creation.
