Upcoming Event: Film Screening & Panel Discussion: “Digging in the Dirt”

Posted on Jan 07, 2020 by admin

Film Screening & Panel Discussion: “Digging in the Dirt”

Digging in the Dirt (2019) is a powerful documentary on mobility and mental health in Fort McMurrary, AB. Profiling several oil and gas workers, their families, and experts in the field (including OTM Co-Investigator Dr. Sara Dorow), the film explores the benefits and costs of the industry as men share their stories of depression and drug addiction spurred by a toxic mixture of high salaries and machismo work camp culture.

Featuring a discussion with film directors and producers Dylan Rhys Howard and Omar Mouallem, NL Construction Sector Association’s Jackie Manuel, Critical Incident Stress Management for Communities founder Valerie O’Leary, and OTM Co-Investigator Dr. Sara Dorow

Join us for this film screening and discussion Thursday, February 13, 7:00 to 9:00pm NT
In Person: Room A1043, Arts and Administration Building, Memorial University, St. John’s
