Film and Mind Online: Joyland 

Joyland (2022, 2 hr 1 min, from Pakistan) is a romantic tragedy written, directed and co-edited by Saim Sadiq. Beyond the plot line, the film shows what happens to “self” when societal roles prevent individuals from realizing identities. As a family drama, Joyland raises the deeper identity problem of self-obliteration when the self isn’t seen by parental eyes. Joyland is an engaging but challenging film, bringing new perspective to issues of “third gender.”

Learning Objectives

As a result of attending this session, participants should be able to:

  • Identify ways in which patriarchal expectations result in the stifling of characters’ vision for their life and consequently lead to unrealized potential
  • Apply understanding of the multilayered psychodynamic impact of colonialism and criminalization on the “third gender” community in Pakistan in psychotherapy with their U.S.-based transgender patients and clients
  • Discuss the developmental cost of “emotional enslavement to a self-object” as presented in Joyland when experienced by patients/clients
