How an epic Dad fail saved my life
Our Creative Director and Co-Founder, Dan, bravely shared his experience with bowel cancer — exploring not just the medical journey, but the emotional, mental and physical impacts it had on his work, his family and his wellbeing.
Produced in partnership with one of our trusted collaborators, the film shows how high-quality production can bring depth and resonance to personal stories — especially in the charity and healthcare sectors. Careful direction, thoughtful storytelling and strong production values turned a difficult subject into a piece that is honest, empathetic and impactful.
Dan’s lived experience has also shaped how we work at Rhodium, giving us a unique, firsthand understanding of the patient perspective — and making us better equipped to deliver creative work that is both thoughtful and sensitive.
Trigger warning: The film includes discussion of bowel cancer treatment, surgery, stoma usage, and the emotional and physical realities that follow. Please take care when watching.
