Description

Mike Rueb and fellow authors describe a 2026 study of film-based teaching in medicine, built around three medical students joining BaseCamp at the Locarno Film Festival. The young talents program mixes students from film, science, arts, and medicine to learn across fields.

The students screened festival entries, picked out seven films with medical themes, and ran a 75-minute workshop with peers from other fields. Feedback showed strong drive to keep working with film in teaching, and new ideas surfaced, such as video essays and making films jointly with art students. Learners also wanted links with similar projects worldwide. The authors propose a cross-field medical film festival and a symposium as next steps.
