A short documentary following Jeff's journey to recovery after a near-fatal motorcycle accident left him paralyzed. The film captures his story across five minutes, highlighting the care and resources made possible through Valley Health Foundation and the Santa Clara County public health system.
Produced as a fundraising and awareness tool, the film is used to communicate the real-world impact of VHF's work to donors and supporters. Lorena directed and produced the project end-to-end, managing a crew of seven and an $8,000+ budget.
