Minimally Invasive (2020)
Written, Directed and Edited by Adam Harvey
An anxious patient fears his concerns are being ignored when his routine operation yields unexpected findings.
In a hospital operating theatre, a patient finds his chosen surgeon has been replaced, and the staff fail to calm his anxieties. As the procedure continues, he becomes increasingly concerned that something is very wrong inside him, and by the time the doctors take him seriously, it may be too late for everyone.
"As doctors we can forget how scary even routine procedures can be from the patient's perspective. This film is my attempt to address this."
