This movie illustrates the following issues which we discussed during our Mental Health Literacy Unit. 

Stigma

Stigma is a cluster of negative attitudes and beliefs that motivate the general public to fear, reject, avoid and discriminate against people. Stigma is not just a matter of using the wrong word or action. Stigma is about disrespect. It is the use of negative labels to identify others.

Stereotype

A stereotype is a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular group of people.

Prejudice

Prejudice is agreeing with the stereotypes.

Discrimination

Discrimination is unfavourable behavior that may result from stigmas, stereotypes and prejudice.
