About the Event
MRKH Mindfulness & Movie Night
Saturday, September 12
686 Bay St., Toronto, ON
Join us for a casual evening of connection and community at our MRKH Mindfulness & Movie Night.
We’ll begin at 4:00 PM with a special in-person support session hosted by Karla—a welcoming space to learn about mental health coping strategies, connect, share, and be in community with others who understand the MRKH journey.
At 5:00 PM, we’ll shift into a dinner and social hour, giving everyone a chance to relax, chat, and connect more informally.
Around 6:15 PM, we’ll stream Fitting In, a heartfelt and humorous coming-of-age film written and directed by Canadian MRKHer Molly McGlynn. The story follows 16-year-old Lindy, whose world is turned upside down after being diagnosed with MRKH. As she navigates identity, relationships, and her understanding of womanhood, the film offers a powerful, honest, and often funny look at a deeply personal experience.
DISCLAIMER: Fitting In (2023/2024) is rated R for sexual content, pervasive language, drug use, and drinking involving teens. It is generally recommended for audiences aged 16+.
We’ll close out the evening with a guided mindfulness exercise led by Karla—an opportunity to reflect, ground, and end the night on a positive and supportive note.
