Free Screening of Documentary "Anxious Nation"

Past event
Oct 18, 2023, 6 to 8 PM

The National Alliance on Mental Illness of Vermont (NAMI Vermont), with the support of other state community organizations, is bringing the documentary Anxious Nation (2022) to communities statewide this fall. These screenings are free to the public thanks to a grant from the Vermont Community Foundation. The last screening will take place at the Savoy Theater in downtown Montpelier on October 18 from 6–8 p.m.

In this film, Academy Award-winning director Vanessa Roth and first-time co-director Laura Morton thoughtfully unfold the epidemic of anxiety and explore why we are such an anxious nation. The film sets out to lift the shroud of shame around mental health while giving emotional insights into how anxiety shows up in our children's lives, impacts families, and what parents' contributing role may be in the journey. The filmmakers offer deep insights into how we got here and what we can do to harness anxious energy for good.
