Expressing Yourself Through Filmmaking
Everyone deserves the chance to express themselves and share their stories. That’s why PUR, a woman-owned small business, passionately spreads mental health and disability awareness through filmmaking. Films and other visual arts provide a unique outlet for self-expression, helping those with mental illnesses and disabilities communicate their experiences.
​
​Join our team to develop new skills and express yourself creatively. Our movies for disabilities aim to help people improve their mental health, communicate their struggles, and build self-esteem. Through filmmaking, individuals explore their emotions, share their experiences, and connect with others. The PUR team produces quality films through a unique perspective that helps others maintain a positive view of life. Our films have been featured at various festivals and events, receiving recognition for their impact and influence.
Expressing Yourself Through Filmmaking
Visual storytelling is an excellent way to educate others about mental health and disabilities. Through our film projects, we aim to break down the stigma surrounding mental illness, creating a more inclusive and accepting society. Our movies for disabilities share powerful stories highlighting people’s challenges and achievements while educating viewers about these important topics. PUR aims to inspire greater understanding, empathy, and compassion toward those with mental illnesses or disabilities.
