TV Series focusing on businesses in financial difficulty |   |
Firefly Productions is making a sensitive and intelligent documentary series for Channel 4 about families facing financial difficulties who are looking for ways to cope.
The purpose of the series is to encourage a wider public understanding of the changes forced on families going through financial difficulties and to show how they can hopefully find a way out of their situation.
Perhaps you run a family business which can no longer keep up with aggressive competition from abroad? Or maybe you are a financial adviser helping a business which is suffering a sudden downturn in the market?
Firefly Productions would like the opportunity to talk to families about their current situation and about how debt and sudden financial change affects home and family life.
The Company are making two observational films. Each film will follow one family’s journey over several months and will be filmed by one director using a small camera. These films are sympathetic and understanding portraits of families facing change.
If any Bytestart visitors are interested in talking about your current situation, please call Emma in confidence on 0207 033 2305.
Calling does not oblige you in any way way to take part in a documentary.
