EHS/EMR-S Film “Remembering Nearfield”: News and Reviews

By Safe Tech International

Sean Carney’s 2023 film effectively raises awareness introducing the public to EHS/EMR-S

Putting attention on EHS/EMR-S across the globe with a vital message for all that breaks taboos and transcends boundaries, Remembering Nearfield is a film that has positive take-aways for everyone.

Why watch the film?

• The film is narrated by a person with EHS speaking about her experiences.
• It is translated into most languages.
• It is FREE, short and clear, and suitable for most audiences.
• Challenges preconceptions, examines the problems & empowers us to be part of the solution.
• It is an award-winning independent film that is open, helpful and frank.

Helping people to understand EHS/EMR-S in 9-minutes, Remembering Nearfield is highly recommended viewing. It resonates with audiences and is standing out in prestigious international film festivals. From Singapore to Africa, from Hollywood to Cannes, it has been globally well-received winning multiple awards and receiving recognition since 2023.

For those interested, the official film festival results in their entirety are listed at the end of this blog. Notably, it has won Best Health Film, Best Film about a Disability Issue, and Award of Recognition for film about Human Rights/Raising Awareness.

Highlighting a disability

As part of the billing for the Inheritance Festival’s Winter show, the film was televised in the UK on Thursday 21st December 2023. It was listed as “A rewarding true story of achievement, loss, difference, disability, radiation, resilience, science, and hope.”

Film Festivals are increasingly emphasising disability films. Many have been keen to present the film like the “Seize the Film” festival in Serbia in 2023 (an international film festival addressing disability partnered with the European Film Academy).

The International Festival “Reflection of Disability in Art” (iRoDi) aired the film at Macedonia University in 2024. In short this awareness-raising film has done remarkably well. People across the world are certainly open to learning more about EHS, especially through film.

Seeing EHS/EMR-S through film

In film, especially animation, it is easier to represent electrosmog and express the intrusive nature of wireless radiation and EMFs. Remembering Nearfield shows how radiation is like a toxic cloud, something those with EHS experience with unpleasant symptoms or a debilitating reaction. For the film’s protogonist, oppressive lethargy, pain and anxiety become a daily burden, with virtually no escape from today’s unprecedented levels of man-made electromagnetic radiation in our world.

Many web sites dedicated to healthcare and EHS/EMR-S now include the film. Recently it was translated into Finnish, to feature on an EHS/EMR-S focused YouTube channel called “Sähköherkät ry”. The film officially resides on Vimeo, where it can be watched and shared.

The film highlights the isolation experienced by those with EHS, who are sidelined in a wireless world with little respite from the prevalent levels of this man-made radiation. Audiences today understand that most would want to live in an inclusive world, where independence, equality and freedom are preserved in healthcare choices and as a basic human right.

The idea that people are being excluded from society and denied appropriate support, consideration and care because of the nature of their disability is an uncomfortable thought. However, the thought of losing a 5G signal in the mall is a “tragedy” to some people, and represents a big dilemma. We are still in that place where society’s attitudes must change in order to acknowledge the problem, if people with EHS are to have any freedom or respite from wireless radiation, to have a bearable quality of life.

No-one wants her freedom from isolation more than the film’s central character, a woman with severe EHS who is stigmatised and neglected in a society reluctant to acknowledge her health condition – and, the “taboo” cause: radiation from man-made electromagnetic fields, which includes wireless radiation.

Solutions oriented

Focused on solutions and desiring proper recognition of EHS, she envisages a world that accomodates her health condition, so that she may live, not in isolation, but in a world mindful that wireless radiation carries risk and has left over 5% of the population unable to sustain an adequate quality of life. The film amply illustrates the unpleasant sensations she feels, living urrounded by an exponentially increasing electrosmog that vast swathes of the population are convinced is of no consequence to their health.

“A wife and entrepreneur devoted to her family and business tragically loses everything as her health mysteriously declines. Why is she now left alone and unable to function in society? All is revealed through a series of startling events and a final, uncomfortable diagnosis.” – Excerpt from the film synopsis.

In Remembering Nearfield we come face-to-face with a vulnerable but resilient woman, showing us what it means to live with severe EHS/EMR-S today. This animated character has the voice of Corriëlle van Vuuren, suffering with EHS, who had a successful life and was fit and active with everything to live for.

That changed. With frank openness, she acknowledges how she once believed exposure wireless radiation was safe, and traces the troubling development of her disability, expressed in her compelling and insightful personal testimony.

Drawing our attention to various situations and emotional content, the animated character brings Corriëlle’s experiences vividly to life, in a way that seeks to break down barriers to understanding, helping the audience feel empathy as part of becoming educated about the debilitating condition afflicting her.

Empowerment and hope

This is an animated film without any commercial constraints and thankfully it doesn’t trivialise, nor rely on unhelpful stereotypes, and certainly doesn’t avoid the harsh realities of its subject.

It is an animated short film, but also a documentary often depicting challenging subject matter – which brought one reviewer acquainted with EHS to tears. Remembering Nearfield, however, doesn’t just move us and show the adversity (which is wholly necessary). Focused on a vulnerable yet resilient woman who doesn’t give up, it is a film of empowerment and hope, that points to solutions and positive changes.

You can read more of its aims and achievements in depth, and interesting reviews by several scientists who commend the film, on the official movie web site.

The film’s message stretches around the world

The film has been submitted to an array of juried film festivals worldwide with a positive impact. It has surprised audiences, but fundamentally educated them, because so many people didn’t know about EHS/EMR-S. The film is succeeding in its purpose, raising awareness to encourage proper recognition of EHS/EMR-S.

The Film’s Impact

Remembering Nearfield has registered 367 submissions achieving 54 official Selections from international film festivals, visually expressed on the infographic map above.

On IMDB [ https://www.imdb.com/title/tt27747210/ ] Remembering Nearfield is listed as having 13 wins and 7 nominations in total. Including awards from non-IMDB listed festivals, the film has accrued 16 international awards in total.

Remembering Nearfield in Africa

The Film has now been Officially Selected by The East African Tanzanite International Animation Festival. This is a big animation event.

“The Tanzanite International Animation Festival is an annual Animation Film festival, [is] an event that celebrates creativity, films, animation and all creative projects. Tanzanite Festival Features Kids Corner space, red carpet, industry discussions, exhibitions, music jam sessions, and an award ceremony. It brings together fans, creators, and professionals to share stories, explore trends, and enjoy creative experiences.” It’s another excellent opportunity to raise awareness about EHS/EMR-S to an enthusiastic and diverse audience enjoying animation from around the globe.
