The Jennings v Alzheimer's | BBC

Winner of the Grierson best science documentary 2024.

'The Jennings vs Alzheimer's' on the @bbc

Directed by the incredible @niamhiekenn this film was such a totally unique sphere to make a film in, with powerful and sensitive human stories and a subject matter which is both highly emotional but also creatively inspiring.

We wanted to let the viewers have time and space to interpret the story in their own way aiming for longer and wider shots. We opted for more negative space and shallow focus, to allow the characters on screen to speak silently. We also let the framing express topics like being trapped in a mind, abstraction but then sometimes we went for just raw observation.
