The Next Chapter: Psychedelics, Healing, and the Second Half of Life

The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “The Next Chapter: Psychedelics, Healing, and the Second Half of Life” showing Aug. 7-9 at the Mary D. Fisher and Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatres.
Please join us for a special screening event of “The Next Chapter: Psychedelics, Healing, and the Second Half of Life”, an intimate and deeply personal documentary by filmmaker and producer Scott Paul Wright that explores the growing role of psychedelic-assisted therapy in the second half of life.
Following adults over the age of 55 as they navigate depression, anxiety, grief, and long-unresolved emotional pain, “The Next Chapter” offers a compassionate look at what it means to seek healing, meaning, and renewal later in life. More than a film about treatment, it is a story about courage, vulnerability, and the possibility of beginning again.
Scott’s own personal journey with psilocybin at age 68 inspired the creation of the film, and he also appears as part of the story he set out to tell.
There will be a special opening night discussion and audience Q&A on Friday, Aug. 7 featuring filmmaker Scott Paul Wright (via Zoom) and moderated by Dr. Heidi J. Dalzell, PsyD, founder of Sedona Integrative Therapy.
Please join us for this exciting event!
