My Brain: After the Rupture

The incredible story of broadcaster, journalist, musician and author Clemency Burton-Hill鈥檚 recovery following a devastating brain haemorrhage in early 2020.

On a bright January morning in 2020, 38-year-old Clemency Burton-Hill - Clemmie - suffered a catastrophic brain haemorrhage. Against the odds, she emerged from a 17-day coma, but she was unable to speak or walk and was faced with having to rebuild her life.

Using compelling recordings from the early days of her recovery, this documentary follows Clemmie as she tries to return to her work as a broadcaster, finish the book she started before her brain injury, and play her beloved violin again with her son.
