A STORY OF SERVICE, SACRIFICE & HEALING
ABOUT TURN: VETERANS TRANSFORMING TRAUMA
This Remembrance Day, join us for a powerful and deeply moving documentary that brings us face-to-face with the realities many veterans continue to live with long after their service ends.
Filmed over two years in and around Pipers Glen, Inverness and Sydney, About Turn: Veterans Transforming Trauma follows a group of Cape Breton veterans on their journey to recover from PTSD, rebuild their lives and find healing.
The film features retired Sgt. Fabian Henry, who runs Veterans For Healing, a clinic dedicated to helping veterans navigate their medical needs and the often-complex process of filing claims with Veterans Affairs.
Behind the scenes of recovery lies another battle: navigating a system where claims can be denied and appeals can take months—or even years—to resolve. Meanwhile, veterans face disproportionately high rates of suicide, underscoring the urgent need for understanding, support and meaningful change.
Intimate, honest and deeply human, About Turn is more than a film about trauma. It is a story of resilience, community and the ongoing responsibility we share to care for those who have served.
Veterans attend FREE.
