On the occasion of World Suicide Prevention Day, a film screening of *The Intouchables* (2011) was held at the hospital on Tuesday, September 8, 2026, with the participation of hospitalized patients and their companions.
The program was designed and organized with the aim of creating a different, uplifting, and interactive environment for patients, with a focus on mental health and strengthening their social connections. Efforts were made to provide an experience similar to that of a real cinema, including refreshments, offering patients an opportunity to spend a few hours away from the usual environment of inpatient wards.
The program was very well received by patients and their companions, with a significant number of patients attending the screening. Participants remained in the hall until the end of the film and, following the screening, took part in a discussion session led by Dr. Seyed Kazem Malakouti, a psychiatrist.
During the discussion, topics related to mental health and suicide prevention were addressed, and patients had the opportunity to share their perspectives and experiences. The feedback received indicated a high level of satisfaction and positive reception among the participants.
World Suicide Prevention Day provides an opportunity to remind us of the importance of empathy, dialogue, and support for mental health.
