Description

After the 100th re-watch of your favorite animated children's film, you start to...notice things. High school best friends, Kat Morse & Kaitlyn Wessels reunite across 3,000 miles to get curious about the ways in which children's animation affected us when we were young, and what we think about those stories today. Part memoir, part psychosocial education, and part self-reflective analysis, 'Narrative Therapy: an Animated Conversation' is for parents, caregivers, psychology-enthusiasts, and film critics alike!
