Treatment in the Real World; Me Little Me Debuts! with Elizabeth Ayiku
Manage episode 448940908 series 3518193
Dietitian Jessica Wilson is joined by Elizabeth Ayiku to talk about the award winning film Me Little Me, which Elizabeth wrote and directed. The film is based on her experience with disordered eating and the barriers she faced while seeking treatment. The pair get into the mechanics of indie film production including what it’s like to write, direct, cast, and financing a film when the rent is past due. They chat about the realities of many people who need mental health treatment but who aren’t able to press pause on their lives and access the time and funding to make it happen, and the different ways to find support in community.
Check out Me Little Me beginning 11/8!
