In The Seats With...Margaret Byrne and 'Any Given Day'

Mental health and well being is a truly fragile thing...

The Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival is still in full gear and running until May 9th with an excellent choice of documentary cinema to dive into at a low price over at HotDocs.ca.

On this episode we take a look at the film 'Any Given Day' from filmmaker Margaret Byrne as she follows three defendants through a specialized mental health prison probation program while sharing and dealing with her own struggles. This film shows struggles that are rarely seen and shines a light on how fragile the system for people with mental health issues can truly be.

We got the distinct pleasure to sit down with Margaret to discuss how she got involved in the story, the flaws in the system and the things that we need to do better as a society...
