Just Listen

Just Listen is a stylistic documentary exploring the identity of people with inattentive ADHD, specifically girls. The film follows the journey of a girl named Selena, who discusses her symptoms and speaks about the struggles she faces from societal pressures put upon her because of stigma surrounding the disorder. Even when asking a psychologist for help, she is left to deal with her problems by herself as she is ‘not struggling enough’. She eventually finds herself cracking under the pressure and feels hopeless. Just listen aims to highlight the struggle ADHD women face and the stigma that is still present in our society today.
