| Summary: | Craig McMillan ended up in a wheelchair following a rugby accident at school. In this programme, he goes on a personal journey to discover if the use of stem cells is both practical and ethical and if it will ultimately have an impact on his own disability. The film was made by a group of ten 14 and 15 year olds from his former school, Ballyclare High in Belfast, as a result of winning the Northern Ireland round of the Big Screen Science competition which was run by young people's filmmaking initiative, First Light, and supported by the Wellcome Trust. The students involved in making the film, with the help of a professional filmmaker and local scientist, had never met Craig but felt that his involvement in the film would give it greater impact and meaning. |
