Catharsis
Short Film
Psychological | Fantasy | Drama
Black Women | Black Community | Women | Mental Health
Catharsis began as Victoria Renee's Autobiographical Character Sketch essay for her M.F.A. application to USC's School of Cinematic Arts. It not only gained her admission but also won the hearts of many. She shared it with other USC hopefuls to serve as an example for their own applications. Victoria Renee dove into the psychological fantasy genre and wrote a tense discourse between her Id, Ego, and Superego. Catharsis serves as her way to demonstrate how she felt torn between pursuing her psychology endeavors and her desire to tell stories as a filmmaker. After numerous people of various backgrounds found it relatable, Victoria Renee adapted it into a screenplay. She leaned into her psychology background to create a story that highlights the importance of truly processing one's uncomfortable emotions in order to heal.

Catharsis will be screened around the country and followed by Q&A panel discussions featuring mental health professionals. This is how we combine art and advocacy - by providing accessible mental health resources to attendees and helping destigmatize mental health within underserved communities. We are seeking mental health professionals of all levels across the nation to participate in our discussions.
