About The Program
Since 2012, Art With Impact (AWI) and California’s Mental Health Commission (MHSOAC) have been building the OLIVE Film Collection, the world’s largest and most diverse library of short films about mental health.
This collection of short films focuses on Sport & Mental Health.
These films are intended to create conversation.
Each five-minute film let’s viewers into a specific emotional world that sparks unique, personal reactions.
Each film has numerous possible connections with viewers.
We encourage you to hold space for yourself and others by using the guides provided above.
After each film our logo will appear, white on black, here you can pause the program to reflect on the film if you are watching alone or to share a discussion prompt if you are watching with a group or class. Just press play again when you are ready to move forward. Take care.
Two friends Jeremiah and Aska empathize with each other over similar childhood traumas, and mental health struggles and bond through a shared appreciation for biking. The chaotic and blurry film aesthetic expresses their struggle within, while they find balance through biking.
