A NIGHT WITH OP COURAGE

Truly honoured to have represented Unseen Scars on Thursday evening at Op COURAGE, The Veterans Mental Health and Wellbeing Service at St Pancras Hospital.
 

Our film Director, Carl Mackenzie had the privilege of speaking with veterans and witnessing the incredible work being done to support them.
 

Unseen Scars continues to do well on its festival run. However, the support and praise it has received from the veteran community—and hearing that the film resonates for its realism and honesty—is deeply humbling.
 

To all those working tirelessly for veterans' mental health—thank you. And to the veterans who shared their stories with Carl Thursday evening, we’re profoundly grateful.

A GLOWING REVIEW -  UK Film Review of Unseen Scars

We received an amazing review from the great people at UK Film Review.

"Poignant and loaded with tension, Carl Mackenzie’s short film Unseen Scars is an emotional deep dive into the haunting reality faced by many veterans trying to readjust to civilian life following time served in the military."
