A Film on Clinical Ethics

Call for ideas …

Clinical ethics remains at the core of the bioethics movement. It is the ethics practiced by clinicians and those in the medical profession at large. However, ethics is not a set of written-down rules and practitioners often have to use their own judgments and discretions, and take critical decisions for the patient. Clinical ethics concerns run the range between questions of decision-making, ensuring privacy and confidentiality, taking consent, and negotiating between doing what is in the best interest of the patient, respecting patient’s judgment and autonomy, considering end-of-life issues and more. Yet, the path to making a decision is not always smooth and often remains marked by dilemmas, anxieties, hesitations and also certainties and triumphs.

The Centre for Studies in Ethics and Rights (www.cser.in), a premier bioethics research organization in India that has been researching on the various aspects of clinical ethics, is inviting creative minds to make a film on any aspect of clinical ethics in an Indian context – a documentary, a montage or a creative mix from footage archives!

Purpose of the film: The film would form part of the syllabus for doctors for their medical humanities course.

The tentative budget for the film will be 2.5 lacs (inclusive of all expenses borne by the director), provided in three installments. We would want the finished film in 90 days from the date of the first installment.

To apply, send the following:

-- A concept note (maximum 500 words) mentioning the duration of your film,

-- A break-up of the budget

-- Your CV (and the CVs of other personnel who might work with you).
