izvanredan 'one-off' program o mentalnom zdravlju. (Enough Rope With Andrew Denton)
tko je u prilici neka pogleda... tko nije, neka se i on zamisli...

The stories of these 'ghosts in our midst' are frank, surprising and deeply moving.

Amongst them are:

Sandy Jeffs - billed as Australia's most famous mad woman, Sandy's business card reads "poet, lunatic and insanity consultant". For 30 years the voices in Sandy's head have tormented her, but - using a combination of humour, honesty and hockey - she refuses to let them destroy her life.

Arana Pearson - has been diagnosed with schizophrenia and through his 'hearing voices' workshop, demonstrates to Andrew what it is like to have voices inside your head - day in, day out, year in, year out.

Heidi Everett - a young woman and songwriter who struggles every day just to stay in the world. Heidi's angels and demons are, to her, very real and often terrifying. As she describes a psychotic episode with devastating clarity, Heidi takes us inside a world where it's often hard to know what is real.

Angels and Demons provides a rare insight into the experiences of those with mental illness. Himself deeply confronted, Andrew also finds the possibility of a better life for people often dismissed as beyond hope.
