Diagnosis stars Screen Star of Tomorrow Charlotte Spencer [pictured].
Diagnosis, the first film to be made under the newly launched BBC and Nfts Greenlight Short Project, started shooting on Sunday (May 29).
The film is a joint venture between BBC Films and the National Film and Television School to fund one short a year for three years made by recent Nfts graduates.
Diagnosis, is written and directed by Eva Riley, whose graduation film from the Nfts, Patriot, competed for the short film Palme d’Or at Cannes 2015.
Producer Emilie Jouffroy’s film Edmond won the Nfts its third consecutive Short Animation BAFTA award earlier this year.
