BRIDGE

Editor, 2023

BRIDGE is a beautiful and touching short film dealing with loneliness, heartbreak and motherhood. Skilfully directed by Tara Aghdashloo, the film highlights some invisible, but incredibly important questions women face in their lives.

Commissioned by the BBC with Kusini Productions, the film is an adaptation of Gemma Barnett’s award-winning poem inspired by her time working as a GP surgery receptionist during the pandemic.
