3 Generations has been documenting stories about the inequalities of the criminal justice system for a number of years. We recently co-produced a documentary with Beti Films, Any Given Day. The film exposes the challenges and injustices of treating mental health issues through the criminal justice system. We have some exciting news to share about the film.
Any Given Day had it’s US Premiere at the 57th Chicago International Film Festival this past October. In addition to it’s US Premiere, the film was also part of the International Documentary Competition and the Festival's City and State Program.
We are happy to share that Any Given Day is the winner of the prestigious Chicago Award, an honor presented to an outstanding film in the Festival’s City and State Program. The jurors shared the following commendation:
“Any Given Day is a powerful and genuine portrait of what life is like living with mental illness… Crafted with love, respect, bravery, and deep empathy, the film not only destigmatizes mental illness but also contemplates a better way to support those in need.”
The film will also be showing at the St. Louis International Film Festival in November.
You can watch the trailer and get more information about Any Given Day here.
