Teeb TV Malaysia Mental Health Film Festival 2019

This inaugural Mental Health Film Festival was launched on the World Mental Health Day, Oct 10, 2019. It is the first of its kind in Malaysia, aiming to:

1. increase awareness about mental health through short films and videos;

2. share experiences that meant to inspire, heal and empower the patients during on-the-ground activities; and

3. to instil the spirit of 'destigmatising mental illness' and there are places that can efficiently share their concerns;
