Film Description:
Director: Ursula Macfarlane
Year: 2024
Running Time: 81 min
On a bright January morning in 2020, writer, broadcaster, and musician Clemency Burton-Hill suffered a catastrophic brain hemorrhage. After emerging from a 17-day coma, she was unable to speak or walk and faced the daunting task of rebuilding her life from the ground up. Drawing on raw and intimate recordings captured during the earliest stages of her recovery, this documentary traces Clemmie’s determined effort to reclaim her identity. As she works to return to broadcasting, finish the book she began before her injury, and once again play the violin with her son, the film becomes a moving reflection on resilience, creativity, and the healing power of the arts.
