This documentary by Sarah Kennedy follows her own story as she embarks on a journey to learn about dyslexia and how it affects people emotionally and mentally throughout their life. She does this through interviews with family and friends to hear their stories, along with professionals who share informative posts online. Research has found that dyslexic individuals experience high rates of anxiety, stress, depression, embarrassment, poor self-esteem and isolation as a result of their disability. This project aims to inform people with dyslexia that they are not alone and other people experience similar difficulties. This may help them feel less isolated by hearing other people’s thoughts and feelings. It may also open a conversation with people who are not affected by dyslexia, about the impacts it can have on a dyslexic person’s mental health. As this is a topic that is not widely discussed or known about.
Come see this beautiful documentary along with all the other amazing projects by our graduating class at INTERSECT 2026 this evening at 6.30pm Áras Geal, TU Dublin Blanchardstown.
