Wang Center Theater
-- Stony Brook University
When
filmmaker Kathy Leichter moved back into the apartment she grew up in after her
mother’s suicide, she discovered a hidden box of audiotapes. Sixteen years
passed before she had the courage to delve into this trove, unearthing details
that her mother had recorded about every aspect of her life from the challenges
of her marriage to a New York State Senator, to her son’s estrangement, to the
highs and lows of living with bipolar disorder. HERE ONE DAY is a visually
arresting, emotionally candid film about a woman coping with mental illness,
her relationships with her family, and the ripple effects of her suicide on
those she loved.
“Here One
Day” provides an incredible opportunity for our community to come together and
discuss personal and professional experiences, to trade resources and
information, to learn, support, grow and heal.
Come experience this beautiful work of art and join in much-needed community
conversation.
Open to the University
community and to the public
Doors open at 5:30 and event
begins promptly at 6:00pm
Event is free and
Registration is required
