Call for Submissions to Mad Pride Toronto's “Altered States: Movies by Mad People” - Deadline: June 1st

This post has not been approved by Media Co-op editors!

Mad Pride is an arts, culture, and heritage festival created by psychiatric survivors, consumers, mad people, and folks the world has labeled “mentally ill”.

Mad Pride is about:
• remembering and participating in mad history
• challenging discrimination
• advocating for rights
• affirming mad identities
• developing and empowering mad communities
• having fun! 

Our lives and contributions are valuable and need celebration!

Mad Pride Toronto 2013 presents:

Altered States: Movies by Mad People

Share your mad, consumer, ex-psych, survivor, crazy, and "illness-ified" visions with us!

We are planning a day of screenings at Mad Pride Toronto 2013, July 8-14, of works made and curated by mad people. There's no theme: works need not exemplify anything other than your own creativity, but we do seek works created by people with experience of the mental health system.

Please submit your work, by June 1st, 2013, on a DVD in .mp4 format if possible to:

Friends and Advocates
2340 Dundas W, Toronto, ON
M6P 4A9

Please contact events@madprideto.com if submitting an unfinished piece. For further info, visit www.madprideto.com
