Filmmaker Fee: £5,000

We're open to innovative approaches, but we envision a positive and engaging documentary that captures the spirit of healthcare in the Midlands. Potential elements of the documentary that could be explored/used include:

• Existing archive footage and photography of City Hospital, telling its rich history;
• Fresh footage and photography which touches on nostalgia but also looks to the future;
• Interviews and narratives from the people of the Midlands - those who experienced care at City Hospital, and those who will benefit from the new facility - this could be a mix of existing and new material.

The film should tell a local story but also resonate with universal themes of care, progress, and community resilience. It should be a celebration of medical advancement and humans' connection with healthcare, engaging audiences on various different levels.
