Soulcial- Film Screening

The Short Film Screening, held as part of Mental Health Week at IIT Bombay, provided a platform for students to express their experiences, perspectives, and emotions through the medium of film. Showcasing original student-created short films, the event highlighted themes such as anxiety, identity, resilience, connection, and personal growth, encouraging meaningful conversations around mental health and well-being.

Through storytelling and creative expression, participants and audiences were invited to engage with diverse lived experiences, foster empathy, and reflect on the challenges and strengths that shape individual journeys. The screening celebrated the role of art as a powerful tool for self-expression, awareness, and community building.
