After graduating from MIT in 2013, Sahar Hakim-Hashemi began the “Sleep is for the Strong” campaign and documentary film project to raise awareness about student mental health issues and the importance of healthier student lifestyles with hopes for improvement.
The Sleep is for the Strong documentary film features over 50 MIT students sharing personal stories of student life challenges and mental health issues with suggestions for improvement to raise awareness and initiate a conversation on bringing about healthier student lifestyles.
“Sleep Is For The Strong” will be available for streaming in the Features section of the virtual festival. You can watch Sahar’s exclusive Mental Filmness interview here: https://mentalfilmness2021.eventive.org/interviews2021
