If Australia needs inspiration for the ongoing battle against Covid-19, it can be found in the country’s efforts to eliminate cervical cancer, according to Sue Collins.
In Conquering Cancer, the documentary filmmaker embarks on an international journey of discovery, exploring how Australia’s successful cervical cancer prevention programs, including Hpv vaccination and cervical screenings, can be adopted internationally.
There are contributions from cancer survivors across Australia, Malaysia, Zambia, USA, Colombia, and Switzerland, as well as global health experts, such as Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus from the World Health Organisation, and Professor Ian Frazer from the University of Queensland.
The film, which is directed by Mike Hill, is a Moonshine Agency production, and is presented by FanForce Films.
Collins, whose previous works include documentaries Take Heart and Little Stars, told If the project was designed to share the journey to elimination and also draw attention to women’s health issues.
