Host a Screening

Bring the film to your group by hosting a screening event: whether it’s a colleague, university, workplace, library, council, hospital or health service, veteran or first responder group, faith community, or grassroots organisation, the film is suitable for PD programs, curriculum learning, carer support and community conversations.

Hosting a screening of PTSD Love Stories is a powerful way to bring people together, spark honest conversation, and move your community to care. It creates space for reflection and practical next steps.

The need is urgent: an estimated 3 million Australians are carers (11.9%); 1.2 million are primary carers; two-thirds are women; 1 in 10 primary carers is under 25, a 60% rise since 2018. We need these conversations now.

Our film gives a human face to those numbers: carers navigating love, identity and the invisible costs of trauma after frontline service. Screenings help de-stigmatise mental health at work; connect carers to support; and model what care can look like in practice.

Why Host a Screening?

PTSD Love Stories offers a moving, trauma-aware film experience that opens the door to action: reducing stigma in workplaces and on campus, connecting people to support, and strengthening carer-inclusive policies and practice. Choose the Feature or Short to suit your audience, then build your event with “bonus content” tailored to your setting: a discussion panel, Q&A or workshop using our Screening Kit, or an appearance from the filmmakers or participants. The goal is simple: turn shared viewing into practical next steps and meaningful change.

Screening Types

In-Person

Turn a room into a shared experience: a set time, the lights down, a thoughtful conversation ready to unfold. Perfect for PD days, campus events, library programs and community nights. Examples: lecture theatre, library auditorium, council chambers, hospital education room, staff training room, gallery space, community hall, cinema hire.

Live Virtual

Bring people together online in real time. Easy invites, a shared chat, a host to guide the discussion, and everyone leaves with the same spark, wherever they are. Examples: Zoom or Teams webinar, multi-campus town hall, staff wellbeing hour, student forum.

On-Demand Window

Offer a short viewing window so busy people can watch in their own time, then regroup for a Q&A or debrief. Ideal for dispersed teams or multi-campus audiences. If you’d like this style of access, get in touch and we’ll talk through options. Examples: week-long window for shift-based teams, regional staff, satellite campuses.
