Description
Summary:	Cultural sensitivity, competence and curiosity are essential for clinicians. To promote these, we developed an elective module in cultural psychiatry for medical students, consisting of eight seminars. In seminar eight, we used film clips to teach mental state examination. We comment on the development and delivery of the module, and offer a selection of student feedback. Cultural psychiatry could be better integrated into core medical school curricula, and we call for research to explore this.
