Special Film Screening
On September 22, West Valley Arts, the Sundance Institute, and University of Utah Health hosted a special screening of the documentary film Try Harder! followed by a panel discussion with the film’s director Debbie Lum and two participants in the film—veteran teacher Richard Shapiro and student Kian Mojabi. The film and discussion, moderated by Aaron Fischer, PhD, of Huntsman Mental Health Institute, focused on how the excessive pressure to excel impacts youth mental health and the importance of destigmatizing mental health.
