Lyme Disease UK Interview with Ruth-Wiegratz-Hope and Director Zoe Paterson Macinnes
On our first day of filming Ruth’s story on Lyme disease, we were walking through the trees and Ruth spotted a blackbird on the ground. It didn’t move when it saw us and she worried it might be injured, but thankfully it got up and hopped away. Throughout filming I constantly noticed how Ruth stopped to see the world around her, and so our documentary is named after that wee blackbird.
