“As media companies and as content
creators and as documentary
filmmakers, we have more than
a responsibility and more than an
opportunity. We have a privilege. A
privilege to tell these stories. To meet
these people, and to see inside their
souls and learn about them. I think that
is what the Voice Awards are about.”
SHABNAM MOGHARABI
Executive producer of 2014
documentary award recipient “Life
Continued: Defeating Depression”
“While it was scary to write about
things that were so personal and left
me feeling so vulnerable, I felt it was
liberating to share these things. And
people started to let me know how
meaningful it was to see these stories
on TV. That they or their loved ones were
going through in their own lives.”

recipient
“Portraying mental illness is not easy. It’s
not tidy. There are no single experiences
that can represent all of them. There are
no easy answers. But these five writers
reached into the depths of their hearts
and souls and portrayed people with
mental illness with so much love, and I
am deeply, deeply grateful to them.”
MARTA KAUFFMAN
Executive producer of 2013

Me Crazy: A Five Film”
