This Is Endometriosis is an intimate, expressive film about how endometriosis has robbed Georgie Wileman of time. Told in the first-person and blending present-day narrative with memories from the past, the film is a uniquely personal account with unprecedented access.

Combining deeply private, self-documented material, intimate family archive, traditional observational footage and a collection of reconstructive memories, the film tells the story of a young photographer’s battle to stay in the present while facing a wall of disbelief. Seen through the lens of Georgie's beautiful, brutal photography, This Is Endometriosis is a human insight into the realities of living with the disease and a story about the power of community.

The film had its World Premiere at Hot Docs before screening at BIFA and BAFTA-qualifying festivals Aesthetica Short Film Festival and Manchester Film Festival. The film went on to screen at Everyman Cinemas across the country in 2023 and is now free to watch.
