Sick Girls by Gitti Gruter

d. Gitti Grüter (Germany, 2023) 1h19m

In this highly personal film, director Gitti Grüter engages with five other women living with ADHS – attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder – to reflect on their shared experiences and challenges. Sick Girls weaves together each woman’s story and asks: what does it mean to have your existence not fit within the rigid frame of societal norms?

This event is part of the Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival’s Focus on Film programme, taking place in Glasgow from 16-19 October.
