Impatient follows artist and activist Sue Armstrong’s efforts to make the Victorian mental health system safer for women. Graphic stories of the rape and sexual abuse of female psychiatric patients have shocked Victorians, but it’s all terribly familiar to Sue. “Genetically radical” and with her own lived experience of mental illness, Sue has been campaigning for fundamental changes in the treatment of women’s mental health for over two decades.
