Biography

Anisa McMullan is a social entrepreneur and filmmaker passionate about advocacy and justice for marginalised people within institutionalised systems. Through her company Black Sheep Media, Anisa has made over 25 films within youth offender institutes, prisons, and low-performing schools, and has co-authored an academic paper titled Narrative and the Nature of Reconciliation within the Self and Society: an Applied Neuroscientific Perspective. Her work has won her numerous awards, including UnLtd's Millennium Award. In 2011, Anisa was awarded a scholarship to attend Roger Martin's integrative thinking program for global leaders, which inspired her to produce a documentary on the program's impact on a low-performing school in Toronto. Her current film project interrogates the intersections of mental health, justice, and the criminalisation of marginalised people under the forensic mental health system.
