Planet Health Film Fund 2027 (£20,000 award)

Earthrise and Bupa, alongside sustainability partner BAFTA Albert and SXSW London, have launched the Planet Health Film Fund 2027. The fund supports five filmmakers to create original short documentaries exploring the deep, personal connections between human health and environmental health in a rapidly changing and urbanised world.

Selected filmmakers will receive £20,000 each to produce a 10-minute documentary along with accompanying social content. The £20,000 award must cover the full cost of making and delivering the film and supporting materials. Projects cannot bring additional production finance and must be realistically achievable within this budget and the agreed delivery timeline.
