Locarno Pro and Berlin's EFM join forces on a new podcast episode

Diego Hangartner & Laurence Lascary

The subject of mental health in the film industry, which was discussed during the Industry Days at this year’s edition, is now at the heart of an episode of Industry Insights - The EFM Podcast. It’s an important and unprecedented opportunity for sharing and cooperation between two key European film events like the the Berlinale and the Locarno Film Festival. Presented by the Berlinale’s European Film Market and made in partnership with Locarno Pro, the episode picks up where we left off in summer, with the analysis of the Looking Glass research project published in 2020. The study revealed a mental health crisis within the UK film and television industry. Two of Locarno74’s StepIn guests discuss the topic: Diego Hangartner, a pharmacologist and coach, and Laurence Lascary, a producer and co-president of Collectif 50/50.
