Care Aware: Courtney's Story

Aaron Wilson directs 6 moving short films to launch the Australian Governments Care Aware campaign. Care Aware aims to highlight the extraordinarily large contribution Australia's 2.6 million unpaid family carers make to the community and society, and raise awareness, recognition and support for unrecognised carers.

The films tell the carers' stories, such as that of 17-year-old Courtney who has been caring for her mum, who has multiple sclerosis, since she was nine years old and Martin who has been caring for his mentally ill wife for 17 years.
