Mental Health Movie Night - Resilience

Union Brew

Friday 11 October 2019 at 5pm - 7pm

The Biology of Stress & the Science of Hope, “Resilience” begins by focusing on the research of Robert Anda, an epidemiologist who has worked with the Centres for Disease Control, and Vincent Felitti, the former chief of preventive medicine at Kaiser Permanente in San Diego. Their findings — that certain risk factors, such as growing up around physical, sexual or substance abuse, have a strong correlation with major health problems in adulthood — may seem intuitive. Throughout, “Resilience” attempts to illustrate the gravity of this strain of study with on-screen text showing percentages and comparative life expectancies. A must watch movie.
