The Edge of Her Mind Anthology

Not a blockbuster but the movie is a well thought out collection of short stories giving insight into various situations or circumstances a woman may experience, and ingeniously conveying their subconscious mind for the audience to understand. The two anthologies I could relate to the most and even remotely consider educational were about caregivers. The script and acting were amateurish in some of the segments. Herein, with these inconsistencies, it lost some of its' power. I wouldn't recommend it for someone who has ADHD. The movie is fast moving and hard to follow at times. An important detail can be lost in the blink of an eye and the movie is definitely not good enough to keep one on the edge of their seat.

After watching the anthology short films, it brought light to the thoughts and struggles that people, especially women, go through. Some of the stories helped me understand things a few of my personal friends and family maybe struggling with, but never voiced. The film was very creative and captures your full attention. These anthologies will give everyone, including men and children, an outlook on the struggles of mental health. These short films were put together in a way to get the message across quickly without taking away from the message. Great job to everyone involved in this project.

All these short films depict women and situations of mental illness that we don't get to witness and we should. Yes, it can be painful but necessary. It takes us out of our own little safe bubble. All films are masterfully written, directed and performed. .

Every short film in this anthology comes from a very personal place, and as a result, every single one is universal in its appeal and relatability. This anthology creates a space for exploring women's mental health and at the same time, it is watchable for men too, who will be able to find parallels with their own experiences and see that none of us are really that different from each other.

My personal favourites were "Over The Moon" and "Fragile Storm." There is something in this anthology for everyone.

Great work to all involved.

A turning and twisting range of emotions as feelings flow from one subject to the next sometimes dark but ever enchanting. Also, great to see so many filmmakers Shining Light on issues that touch all of us yet no one wants to speak about.
