BRAINSTORIES | Doc Series

Beginning late summer/early fall 2023, Storymasters will begin shooting an anthology of 5 to 7-minute documentaries profiling the work of a cross-section of modern-day neurosurgery trailblazers. The films will launch early 2024, part of a 100th Anniversary salute to Neurosurgery in Toronto.

The gritty, real-life films will weave the perspective of surgeons, patients, and residents at four major Toronto hospitals, and shine a light on the groundbreaking research and surgical techniques performed there. In recent years, Toronto has become the epicentre of a world-class neurosurgical community.

Funding for the series comes from a variety of sources, including several Toronto-based hospital consortiums.
