Oscar-winning filmmaker Derek Cianfrance directed via RadicalMedia this moving two-minute film that promotes a groundbreaking digital platform for Montefiore Einstein Hospital in the Bronx, in service of the hospital’s kidney and liver transplant patients.
Alto in New York is the ad agency behind the campaign and the platform. The platform is designed to help patients share their unique and personal experiences through an AI storytelling tool. These stories in turn can help patients reach out to and connect with living donors who can provide a kidney or part of their liver as part of a viable life-saving option for many of those in need.
The Cianfrance-helmed piece mirrors the films that patients can create through the website. Cianfrance’s “Live and Let Live” film shares the story of Nini Skye who is not a real patient. But the film demonstrates the power of the platform. World-renowned composer Ludovico Einaudi lent his skills to the project musically.
Through simple prompts, patients can input details about their lives, including images and audio, and in a matter of minutes the platform turns those inputs into a deeply personal, heartfelt film, social, print and OOH content for them to share their unique story in digital and real life.
