Award Winning Independent Documentary


3600 miles, The Indian Ocean and one epileptic cancer survivor. A story finally told by the Wilson Family, how their father, Ashley Wilson truly proves that ‘Nothing’s Impossible’


The Story
'Nothing's Impossible' follows Ashley Wilson and his family’s journey living and growing up with a father with cancer and epilepsy. We see the prejudices and countless challenges against them, until Ashley decides to take matters into his own hands and prove to the world that his disability does not define him.
He set out to row the Indian Ocean, 3600 miles from Australia to Mauritius, to help raise money and awareness for ‘Young Epilepsy’ a charity that supports and aids young people and their families affected by epilepsy. However, disaster stuck when their capsized in a storm forcing the SOS signal to be sent. His family were at home, unable to tell if he would survive. They were eventually rescued by an oil tanker and lived to tell the tale.
10 years on, Ashley’s medical issues continue as he is now living with a tumour on his brain. This documentary is to finally tell this extraordinary story and to raise awareness on epilepsy and any funds we can ourselves for ‘Young Epilepsy’ just as Ashley, who is our producer Abbies Father, did those years ago.

We wanted to continue to amplify Epileptic voices within our piece - enter VC PINES
VC PINES is a London Based alternative musician. VC Pines started suffering epileptic seizures as a teenager; now, he is telling the story of his condition and how it has affected his life through his debut album, MRI in which we used tracks from.
Also known as Jack Mercer, he started suffering seizures while at college in London at 17, and when his epilepsy was at its worst they were happening almost daily. It was a scary time. Now 29, he has learned to love the way his brain works, and is sharing his story through his music.
After speaking to Jack and the teams behind 'Bones' and 'Chamber' (opening track made with literal medical noises) they agreed that our morals aligned and offered their usage free of charge for our year of festival runs. We really feel Jacks music really makes this project what it is and brings everything together perfectly.

'It really reflects how epilepsy doesnt just affect the person having seizures and often has a larger impact on the people watching their loved one go through it. The resilience of the person with epilepsy is usually focused on but I really enjoyed how it shines a light on the family's resilience too.
I think the documentary is absolutely brilliant'
