Frontline19, Sicker than the Patients

With over half of National Health Service (NHS) workers suffering from poor mental health in the UK and one in four workers having considered suicide, this film underlines how, in many cases, NHS staff are sicker than the patients they are treating. The use of the CCTV footage technique allows the audience to experience the distressing reality that they have previously not had access to, through a composition of moments, recreated based on real anecdotes from frontline healthcare workers. This film technique was integral in landing the depth of the issue that Frontline19 exists to solve.
