- Summary:
- The 7 interventions of Filmmaker-in-residence feature film: Filmmaker-in-Residence is an innovative documentary experiment from the National Film Board of Canada. It started in 2004 with the placement of media maker Katerina Cizek "in residence" at Toronto's inner-city St. Michael's Hospital, renowned for innovation in patient care and research. This groundbreaking project in media intervention integrates documentary film-making, "video bridging," photoblogs, digital storytelling and more to produce a "collective intelligence" approach that investigates complex health issues and the integral role of creative collaboration across disciplines and hierarchies to smash social and political barriers. What happens when homeless women become mothers? How can doctors from Toronto work hand-in-hand with HIV activists in rural Africa? What can people who have made recurrent suicide attempts learn from each other? These and other issues come alive in this documentary, featuring seven distinct yet interconnected experiments in collaborative media. The documentary charts the project's five-year history, investigating the creative process from within as media makers join health care workers to reflect on ethics, interventionist filmmaking and shifting cinematic genres.
- The bicycle: Rural health worker Pax Chigawale rides his bike over 20 kilometres daily, mobilizing a grassroots, community care program for HIV/AIDS treatment and prevention in the Zomba District in his native Malawi. An inspiring story of how local communities can join with global medical expertise to battle the deadly disease.
- The interventionists: This vérité film follows a psychiatric nurse and a police officer who, as part of the Mobile Crisis Intervention Team, respond to calls involving "emotionally disturbed persons." Their mandate: to de-escalate crises, and de-criminalize mental health.
- Hand-held (Young Parents No Fixed Address): How do you take care of your health when you don't have a home? Young mothers who have experienced homelessness create over 100 minutes of digital storytelling: the I was here photoblog; Street health stories, a powerful exhibit mounted in conjunction with The street health report; and Unexpected, a "video bridge" dialogue between homeless mothers and health care workers.
- Drawing from life: A hospital program helps high-risk people from further attemps at suicide, but dropout rates are high. That's where this film about a suicide intervention therapy group, interwoven with animation, offers support and insight.
