A lifetime of support

A ‘home footage’ film of Carly and Effie’s story for Together for Short Lives.

To celebrate its year anniversary, Faltrego selected Together for Short Lives as its Pro Bono partner in 2019.

Together for Short Lives is a leading UK charity for children with life-threatening & life-limiting conditions, and Faltrego partnered to produce a film for their ‘A lifetime of support’ campaign. The message was that the charity helps families spend less time searching for answers and more time together.

We chose to focus on a single narrative: Carly’s story. Understanding that Carly had ample home footage that she was happy to share, we agreed to adopt a ‘home footage’ approach to the storytelling. This helped visually install the message the moments and memories matter - and that Together for Short Lives can help. 

"Faltrego was an absolute joy to work with and handled our brief with tremendous care and thought. We were so impressed with how Mary worked with the family on the day of filming and can’t thank her enough for her sensitive and kind approach. The end result is a beautiful film that we cannot wait to share."
