Films about care, loss and the lives we share.
Independent documentary work by Kathie Melocco, exploring what happens when life changes—and how people, families, workplaces and communities respond.
Through lived experience, careful research and storytelling, these films invite us to listen more closely and understand experiences beyond our own.

When work changes a life, what happens next?
A four-part documentary series exploring what happens after workplace injury.
​
Developed over three years, Shattered brings injured people, families, clinicians, employers, advocates and researchers into a shared conversation about care, recovery and responsibility.
​
The series follows the history of workers’ compensation, the relationship between treatment and assessment, financial pressures and returning to work, and what happens after inquiries identify harm.
​
At its heart are people navigating changes to health, identity, relationships and belonging—and the responses that can support recovery.
