New 'mental illness' film awards

November 07, 2005

MOVIES containing positive images of people dealing with mental
illness are the subject of a new Australian film competition.

The Hope Awards, believed to be a world first, challenged filmmakers
to create short films with a message of hope for people managing and
recovering from mental illness.

Television presenter Andrew Denton, patron of the Hope Awards, said
they would help change attitudes towards mental illness.
