The son of Australian Rules Football legend Neil Balme, William Balme, writes a series of letters to his anxiety, while trying to navigate through his demons and life as a young adolescent.

Through his raw and honest account, and the voices of other young men and women, Letters To Anxiety aims to encourage open conversations with mates and loved ones about mental health & wellbeing, both on and off the footy field.

The film was shot over 5 years, with no real plan other than to document William's journey and see where it goes. It changed its shape and form over time, but it's a raw and honest documentation of William's battle. It's emotional and uncomfortable and real.

We thank William for the opportunity to capture and share his very personal struggle and his story. One story, reflective of many others. Suicide is one of the biggest killers of men in Australia so the more that we can share openly, the better we can pave the way for others to do the same.
