​
TOTAL DURATION OF THE EVENT: 2 HOURS
WHY THIS EVENT NOW?
There are over 13 million women in perimenopause and menopause in the UK and only 12 menopause clinics and minimal NHS provision to address the needs of women who are going through this phase of life.
Open to everyone, the film will tell stories from around the world including from underrepresented and underprivileged communities who don't have access to menopausal services or for whom the subject may still be taboo. It will offer a varied, balanced and intergenerational view of the full spectrum of the menopausal experience, from severe mental illness to fulfilling rebirth. After the film, we are setting up a pop-up menopause clinic at each of the cinema locations and we will invite local menopause groups and charities to the event so you can build a community of support where you live.
