It is with great pleasure that we announce that CONSCIOUS, written and directed by award-winning artist and filmmaker Suki Chan, will celebrate its Swiss Premiere at The Global Science Film Festival 2026 this October 24th at 17:45 at at Stadtkino Cinema.
In her debut feature, Suki crafts a sensorial and intimate journey into the human mind, weaving together the lived experiences of three remarkable women - Wendy Mitchell, Pegeen O’Sullivan, Maureen Winfield, and renowned neuroscientist Anil Seth. The film explores growth, reconciliation and resilience in the face of dementia - illuminating beauty in places we might least expect it.
