Mike Vertigans, WCMC-Q's Director of Public Affairs, stated, 'Our story is a fascinating one and we hope to have conveyed this to future medical students, whilst inspiring them to follow their dreams to become doctors. The New York Festival award is testament to the film's success and we would like to thank all those involved, colleagues and students, for their hard work in making this happen.'
