About this Short Film
Altered Thoughts (2023), by Mark Agume (Uganda) Presented in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, Altered Thoughts looks at anxiety, hallucinations and shifting perception through the lens of mental health. The film invites reflection on how an individual young adult might experience mental illness and encounters with psychiatric care, without prescribing a single explanation. Quiet and observant, it asks viewers to consider viewpoint and the fragile boundary between inner experience and outward behaviour. Intended for audiences interested in stories about ability, resilience and the variety of human experience, this short contributes a thoughtful perspective to our programme on mental health and disability.
