My Sister Liv is a powerful, feature-length documentary exploring love, connection, grief, and the mental health epidemic. The film features sisters Tess and Liv, who from a young age are inseparable, with what seems to be an unbreakable bond. However, as Liv enters adolescence and struggles with the relentless pressures of social media, depression, body dysmorphia, and oftentimes thoughts of suicide, her big sister Tess struggles to help her. My Sister Liv is a rare and riveting journey into the life of a young girl and her loved ones. As Tess and her family learn to cope after unthinkable loss, they begin the heartbreaking journey to understand the circumstances that led to Liv's death, and learn from experts that give real solutions and hope.
The time to start talking about mental health is NOW. Virtually, over Zoom in the library’s meeting room, watch the documentary film, My Sister Liv. The film, vetted by the Children’s Hospital Colorado Pediatric Mental Health Institute to ensure the content was accurate and safe, and in no way glorified this issue, has been approved for youth ages 14 and up.
The private screening will be followed by a discussion with The Liv Project founders and Mental Health Director. They will discuss the importance of inspiring Fearless Conversations around mental health and facilitate a Q&A with audience members and a representative from Marvelous Minds. For high school and older.
