Framing Trauma : Mental Illness and the Documentary Image. (360G-Wellcome-106709_Z_14_Z)

£4,972

The one-day colloquium explores how documentary film responds to mental illness as a social issue, and as a cultural metaphor, with particular reference to N. Ireland. The first part of the colloquium examines the role of documentary - generally - in promoting public knowledge about Psychiatry and Mental Healthcare. The second part then considers these issues in relation to documentary representations of political conflict-related trauma and mental illness in contemporary Northern Ireland. The c olloquium encourages broad engagement from researchers, clinical and creative practitioners, relevant policy-makers, and other interested individuals. This event is being held at Queens University, Belfast, and is co-hosted by the School of Creative Arts, the School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Biomedical Science, and the Institute for the Study of Conflict Transformation and Justice. It will be included in the programme for the 2015 Belfast Film Festival, and a selection of papers from the co lloquium will be expanded and published in a special issue of a leading peer-reviewed, open-access journal.
