Conflicting Messages about Mental Health & Social
Description
Our movie takes place at a downtown restaurant where five friends from different programs meet for dinner. A casual question about how they cope with stress turns into a conflict about social media and mental health. Some see social media as harmful (anxiety, comparison, cyberbullying), while others see it as helpful (community, awareness, opportunities). The discussion becomes heated and personal, but then they pause, calm down, and actually listen to each other’s experiences. By the end, they turn the conflict into a collaboration by planning a campaign that promotes healthier, more balanced social media use.
