Chronically Locked Down

Awareness Campaign

Micro-Short Documentary

This short documentary taps into a moment of shared empathy, demonstrating the parallel between lockdown and how Charli’s life already was due to a chronic neurological illness, ME/CFS, holding in equal focus the struggles created by limitations and the gratitude discovered within life's more simple moments.

The film was created with footage documented by Charli and her partner and producer Toby Anthonisz, then edited, narrated and scored by Charli during the first UK lockdown in 2020. The film screened at London Short Film Festival, and DepicT! Subsequently, the film has been preserved in the BFI National Archive.

Director & Editor: Charli Siobhan Whatley
Producer & Director of Photography: Toby Anthonisz
