The film focuses on one survivor's reflections while expert interviews place emphasis on the importance of parental and caregiver support.

The dialogue will present various perspectives from across campus, encouraging students to consider academic overlaps and possible opportunities for collaboration. Panelists include CSUSM faculty and staff from Student Health & Counseling Services, the Department of Psychology, the School of Arts and more.
