The mission statement from the invite is as follows: “The mission of Feel It All is nothing short of powerful, lasting cultural change of breaking down the stigma around mental health and suicide in order to create a culture that honors and prioritizes mental health in order to save lives and help us thrive as individuals, communities, and as a society.”
The film includes ski clips and parts of Petersen’s Leadville 100 race, as a way to include topics relative to Colorado audiences while broaching tough subjects that need more attention.
“If we just jump to, ‘Hey, you want to have a conversation about suicide?’… because guess what? That doesn’t work very well,” Petersen said, laughing. “But when we have this in common, it can bring a community together.”
If you can’t make the first showing, it will also show in Crested Butte on Friday, 5:30-9 p.m. If you can’t make either event, the film will be on YouTube later in the summer free to stream.
