Breaking taboos! Mental illnesses such as PTSD are a stigma for soldiers. Triggered by stressful deployments, those affected do not seek help for a long time out of shame or ignorance. Raising awareness and encouraging people to seek help - that is the task of our films. Those affected and their relatives should be able to see themselves in the films. The three films have one focus: those affected, relatives of those affected and professionals. The films are based on interviews and real events.
The Jury‘s Statement
With its campaign #UnvisibesLeid, Angriff auf die Seele e.V has made a remarkable contribution to the visualization of psychosocial consequential damage to which Bundeswehr members are exposed after missions abroad. Through the authentic and sensitive processing of real experience reports in a series of films, a deep understanding of the topic of mental illnesses such as PTSD was created. The films are characterized by the fact that they not only reach and support those affected and their families, but also create an awareness of the need for psychological help within the military and beyond. With its holistic approach and professional implementation, #UnvisibesLeid impressively demonstrates how a socially relevant topic can be successfully communicated with empathy and expertise.
