Mees is 29 and has been diagnosed with MS — multiple sclerosis. It’s an illness that affects the nervous system. Without the research that’s been done up until now, his life would’ve looked completely different. That’s why we created this campaign: to raise money for MS research.

What started as a small idea turned into something much more meaningful. Mees opened our eyes to what living with MS really means — and throughout the process, he showed incredible strength and openness. It was also a powerful reminder of how film can be used to share real, impactful stories.
