Can anyone locate any research around the effectiveness of psychoeducational (or narrative) movies for those with a mental illness? and for their families?
Dear Andrea,
Psycho-educational movies work for staff and patients:

Interesting question! I use films/movies concerning families with mental health problems in i my teaching regularly... They are very resourceful!
Yet, I have never seen/read any on their impact on families in particular...
Dear Andrea,
Just read the result part of the paper I suggested, then you see that the impact is very good
Dear Andrea,
I recommend taking a look at a couple of books by Danny Wedding - 1. Positive Psychology at the Movies 2, and 2. Movies and Mental Illness, 4th edition. The first book seems like it might be more along the lines of what you are looking for, but "Movies and Mental Illness" might also be a useful source.
Deae Andrea,
The attached article could be of interest to you.
Best wishes,
Julio
