http://wildtruth.net/psychology-and-c... ••• Here are the stories of two people, Rósa and Hrannar, who were in the Icelandic mental health system. Both found alternative ways of finding health, getting out of psychiatry, and getting and staying off psychiatric medication. I filmed them on a beach an hour from the capital, Reykjavik, while I was visiting Iceland -- on the Solstice, June 21, a day in which it stays light out for 24 hours a day. What better day to make a film of hope! • (P.S. The plumes of smoke in the background at certain points in the film -- such as at 4:08 and 5:39 -- are actually steam vents from natural hot springs which occur all over Iceland.) • Here are links to two Icelandic organizations the struggle for the rights of people in the mental health system: • http://www.gedhjalp.is/ • http://www.hugarafl.is/ • My website: http://www.wildtruth.net
