Schumann: bipolar disorder and the creative process Tue, 10 Oct 2017 | 17:00 – 18:30 | Hall B The great 19th century German composer Robert Schumann (1810 – 1856) represents one of the best ex- amples of the complex relationship between creative genius and mental illness. A prominent figure in music's Romantic era, Schumann ignored traditional styles and wrote compositions that were based purely on a desire to express his inner state of mind. While it is challenging to do retrospective psychiatric diagnoses on historical figures, Schumann wrote letters and kept detailed dia- ries which strongly suggest that he suffered from bipo- lar disorder. Psychiatrist and pianist Richard Kogan will trace the course of Schumann's psychiatric illness and will ex- plore: » How Schumann composed voluminously during hypomanic periods but stopped writing completely toward the end of his life when a severe depression culminated in a suicide attempt and eventual self- starvation in an insane asylum. » How Schumann used musical composition to soothe his intrapsychic distress. » How Schumann wrote powerful music at the urging of inner voices but was ultimately tormented by his auditory hallucinations. Kogan will perform some of Schumann's most mag- nificent piano music to illuminate the discussion. He will analyse how extreme fluctuations in mood can be both potentially beneficial and harmful in the creative process, explore Schumann's fascinating relationship with his wife the virtuoso pianist Clara Wieck and will describe the nightmarish conditions in 19th century psychiatric hospitals and contrast this with 21st century treatment practices. © Roadshow Berlin 55 PSY CHIA TR Y AND AR T Music: The Bipolar Roadshow With “The Bipolar Roadshow” the German Association for Bipolar Disorders (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Bipolare Störungen e.V., DGBS) would like to draw attention to the particular problems of people with bipolar disorders and their relatives. The illness often has devastating social consequences: many people with a bipolar disorder can no longer work; friendships, marriages and families break down. However, with the proper care bipolar disorders are generally highly treatable. The Bipolar Roadshow – an anti-stigma and informational project Wed, 11 Oct 2017 | 17:30 – 19:00 | Hall A4 The Bipolar Roadshow presents information about bipo- lar disorders in a way that is easy to understand and entertaining. Bipolar disorders are often associated with creativity. Many distinguished artists had or have a bi- polar disorder: Robert Schumann, Hermann Hesse and more recently Kurt Cobain, Amy Winehouse and Bruce Springsteen. The Bipolar Roadshow also wants to build a bridge between art and the illness. It does so by showing works by fine artists with a bipolar disorder as an accom- paniment to a book reading and musical entertainment. The Bipolar Roadshow also sees itself as an anti-stig- ma project: three artists with a bipolar disorder appear in public and talk or sing about their experiences with the illness and thus show that there is no reason to be ashamed.

Mon, 9 Oct 2017 Documentary Mon, 9 Oct 2017 | 13:30 – 15:00 | Hall London 1 The Wounded Healer (30 min followed by a discussion) The genesis of this half hour film is an innovative anti- stigma lecture targeted at healthcare professionals and students given by medical practitioner Dr. Ahmed Hankir. Although targeted at this audience the Wounded Healer also has appeal and relevance to service users, carers and family members and broader society. Produced by Raw Productions Ltd and funded by the University of the Arts London. Director: Sal Anderson, United Kingdom Protagonist: Ahmed Hankir, United Kingdom Co-Chairs: Rashid Zaman, United Kingdom Dolly Sen, United Kingdom Documentary Mon, 9 Oct 2017 | 13:30 – 16:00 | Hall London 3 FUNKTIONIEREN (96 min Deutsch / Schweizerdeutsch mit deutschem Untertitel mit anschließender Diskussion) Wir leben in einer Gesellschaft die sich mehrheitlich nach Außen orientiert, das Innere ist nicht mehr so wichtig, es ist eher störend. Wer innerlich nicht mehr ordnungsgemäß funktioniert, soll so schnell wie möglich wieder funktionsfähig werden. Mit allen Mitteln. Doch geht das? Und falls ja, welchen Preis zahlen wir dafür? Betroffene erzählen von ihren persönlichen Erlebnissen und Fachleute berichten von ihren Erfahrungen und Kenntnissen. Kenntnissen, welchen in der Psychiatrie und in der Öffentlichkeit kaum Raum gegeben wird. Director: Brigitte Zürcher, Switzerland Chair: Peter Lehmann, Germany Documentary Mon, 9 Oct 2017 | 15:15 – 17:45 | Hall London 1 The sky and beyond / Himmel und mehr (90 min subtitled in English followed by a discussion) The film reflects on the remarkable life of the 100-year- old sculptor Dorothea Buck who cured herself from schizophrenia. During the Third Reich she was forci- bly sterilized and barely escaped „euthanasia“. Buck's younger sister provides an outside view, reflecting on the dismay and helplessness most families experience when mental illness strikes in their midst. By accentu- ating the narrative Dorothea Buck's sculptures bear wit- ness to an impressive body of work. Director: Alexandra Pohlmeier, Germany Chair: Thomas Bock, Germany 59 PSY CHIA TR Y AND AR T Tue, 10 Oct 2017 Cinema documentary Tue, 10 Oct 2017 | 13:30 – 16:30 | Hall London 1 Astu – so be it (123 min Marathi with English subtitles followed by a discussion) Astu is a gentle, seemingly simple film that captures an old man in decline – degenerating physically and losing control of his mental faculties as well. It's about his grad- ual fading away. It also captures the dilemmas of the family that is losing someone dear, bit by bit, minute by minute, to dementia. Director and protagonist: Mohan Agashe, India Chair: Frank Jessen, Germany Documentary Tue, 10 Oct 2017 | 13:30 – 16:30 | Hall London 3 Art of storytelling: The human experience of being a psychiatrist (75 min followed by a discussion) The purpose of this film was to achieve a better under- standing of who we are as psychiatrists right now. A committee of six psychiatrists took oral histories from twelve other psychiatrists spanning three generations. The stories are artfully woven together to create a cohe- sive narrative. What emerges is unexpected and incred- ibly moving. The stories are deeply personal and high- light the differences and similarities we share as people in doing the work we do. This documentary was produced by Mindi Thelen for the Southern California Psychiatric Society. Director: Michelle Furuta, USA Producer: Mindi Thelen, USA Editor: Tim Thelen, USA Cast members: Mary Ann Schaepper, USA Michael Gales, USA Maria T. Lymberis, USA Documentary Tue, 10 Oct 2017 | 13:30 – 15:00 | Hall London 2 We are here! / Wir sind hier! (45 min subtitled in English followed by a discussion) A film about children of mentally ill parents, for chil- dren, adolescents and adults. When a mother or a father breaks a leg, a family talks about it. But when a parent becomes mentally ill, it is often hidden. However, it is good for children to be taken seriously with their feel- ings and problems, because it is not only difficult for the parents but also for the children. How difficult the situ- ations are for children, and that they also may urgently need help, is not a topic known to many people. Director: Andrea Rothenburg, Germany Co-Chairs: Susanne Simen, Germany Louise Larbanoix, Germany Documentary Tue, 10 Oct 2017 | 15:15 – 17:45 | Hall London 2 Die Mitte der Nacht ist der Anfang vom Tag (78 min mit anschließender Diskussion) Der Film soll das Verständnis für die Erkrankung Depres- sion verbessern – für Betroffene, ihre Angehörigen, aber auch die Öffentlichkeit sowie aufklären, informieren und Vorurteile und Fehlwissen abbauen. Insbesondere möchte der Film auch die Perspektive des Umfeldes – vor allem der Angehörigen – berücksichtigen und deren Anliegen und Bedürfnisse miteinbeziehen.

Chair: Michael von Cranach, Germany Documentary Wed 11 Oct 2017 | 15:15 – 16:45 | Hall London 2 Stigma (26 min mit anschließender Diskussion) Ein Tonstudio. Zwei Notenständer. Zwei Mikrofone. Zwei Männer. Der eine fragt: „Wann hast du deine Neigung entdeckt?“ Der ältere antwortet: Direkt. Offen. Scho- nungslos. Er ist pädophil. Fühlt sich sexuell zu jungen Mädchen hingezogen. Jahrelang hat er gehofft, dass das wieder weggeht. Aber es ging nicht weg. Er hat eine The- rapie gemacht und gelernt, seine Neigung zu kontrollie- ren. Er kämpft, will ein guter Mensch sein. Doch er muss damit leben, was er seiner Tochter angetan hat. Idee und Konzeption: Jens Wagner, Germany Peter Jeschke, Germany Chair: Klaus M. Beier, Germany Thu, 12 Oct 2017 Documentary Thu, 12 Oct 2017 | 11:45 – 13:15 | Hall London 1 Break out into art – The cell of Julius Klingebiel / Ausbruch in die Kunst – Die Zelle des Julius Klingebiel (45 min subtitled in English followed by a discussion) The history of the locksmith Julius Klingebiel comes alive in a thrilling documentary. His fate as a psychiat- ric patient took him from being arrested by the police and held in psychiatric custody to being consigned for years to a mental asylum. He started to draw in 1951 in the Göttingen “Verwahrungshaus” (safe-keeping house) and by 1961 he had completely filled the walls of his cell with paintings. The author Antje Schmidt depicts his life, suffering and artistic liberation in a moving, scenic documentation.
