Feed Your Head takes the viewer on a bio-chemical journey from a deserted mental hospital in Weyburn, Saskatchewan through the nutritional wasteland of Western Civilization.

If you plan on attending any orthomolecular event this year, make sure it's this one!

Abram Hoffer and Humphry Osmond met in the middle of nowhere, on the Canadian Prairie, but these idealistic doctors revolutionized the field of mental health on a global scale. They're gone now, but their legacy lives on. Their radical ideas about a bio-chemical cause of schizophrenia were widely ridiculed in their day. The conclusions they reached are gaining acceptance now, and they have implications for us all.

“Feed Your Head” brings the past alive in the present day; blending archival images with vibrant contemporary footage to tell the story of a timeless concept: we are what we eat. The future of medicine lays at the convergence of science and hope.

Featuring interviews with orthomolecular practitioners and patients.

Music played by Anton Kuerti and the Blue Engine String Quartet.

Admission: $5 for the first 50 people to order directly from the ISF office. $10 after that or at the door.

The premiere will include a 15 minute version of the documentary "Masks of Madness: The Science of Healing", followed by the screening of "Feed Your Head". A panel discussion will follow.

The film’s Director, Connie Littlefield of Conceptafilm, will be in attendance at the screening.
