Description

One night only!

 “Fake it until you make it.” We’ve all heard this expression before. But does smiling actually make you happier? Does changing your posture make you more confident? Will acting in love save your relationship? Albert Nerenberg thinks so. In his highly-entertaining follow-up to his seminal film Laughology, the acclaimed director and laughter expert explores how behaviour can affect how we feel. By looking at how Hollywood’s biggest stars become their roles, Nerenberg suggests acting has the untapped potential to transform the way we express ourselves and pursue wellness. Featuring interviews with some of the world’s leading cognitive psychologists, You Are What You Act will have you considering: What influences us more, our minds or our bodies?

Join director Albert Nerenberg for a Q&A after the screening.
