From Cradle to Grave

This film came from a moving letter written to Open Space by Kim Fisher , in which she describes the experience of losing her daughter, Holly, shortly after birth. Two in every 100 babies born in the UK in 1987 will be stillborn or die during the first month after birth. In her film - made with the help of the Birmingham Stillbirth and Neo-Natal Death Society - Kim addresses some of the emotional aspects of bereavement and offers guidance to help and comfort those who have suffered the loss of a baby.
