The April 16 and 17 "Parliament Double Feature" brings together UNCONDITIONAL Commercially Re-Released for World Health Awareness Month, First-Ever Mainstream Movie on Caregivers and Mental Health and the Most Widely NEW YORK, April 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Commemorating World Health Month, the film UNCONDITIONAL will celebrate its international premiere before the European Parliament in Brussels on April 16. With an unprecedented series of premieres at the White House, the United Nations, and the U.S. Capitol, UNCONDITIONAL is a genre-defining story of three families and their resilient journey of caregiving and mental strength. Bringing together topics that affect one billion people globally, the feature film profiles three families over seven years. Caregiving, mental health, and military family experiences shine through in this documentary, which provides a glass-half-full perspective on subjects often discussed in extremes. AT THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT (APRIL 16, 2024) As many as 52 million Europeans provide unpaid, informal care to family members.1 In the U.S., some 100 million people face caregiving and mental health challenges annually, while globally, as many as one billion share this experience. Yet, these issues are barely included in culture and conversation. During the screening event, speakers will highlight how the history of caregiving underpins the transatlantic relationship. Prepared remarks will address how, in the 20th century, U.S. military conflicts were primarily local, with care provided nearer to the battlefield by families and communities. With WWI and WWII, the paradigm shifted as U.S. soldiers in Europe received a greater proportion of their rehabilitation and long-term care abroad from European caregivers, transforming the caregiving economy.
