New Realities
for Lenovo
The Project
The story of three young people using technology in a world of pain. Directed by Ruth Sewell and produced by ourselves, New Realities is a short film (10m) that tells the story of three children who are using virtual reality in place of anaesthetic, in hospital.
The film is made possible by a collaboration between the tech company Lenovo, the charity Starlight, and the clinicians at Children’s Hospital, Colorado. It arose following a brief from Lenovo to generate media coverage around the positive use of technology. It was distributed in ten countries, creating awareness and debate around the world.
