Heat is one of three videos produced for Reeling in the Pain - a creative initiative to shed light on the untold story of people suffering with nerve (neuropathic) pain. It tells the true story of a 34 year old French chef living in Dublin, Ireland, who was diagnosed with chronic neuropathic pain following a shoulder injury sustained at work.

The campaign organised by the Irish Chronic Pain Association (ICPA) and Pfizer Healthcare Ireland aims to raise public awareness of the condition through the medium of film.

Neuropathic pain leaves up to 120,000 Irish people with inexplicable burning, stabbing and shooting pains caused by unseen damage to the nervous system.

Reeling in the Pain aimed to help people realise that neuropathic pain is a genuine medical condition and that by visiting their doctor and linking with a patient support group, they can find relief from the pain and sense of isolation.
