When Claire Jensz was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) at just 28, it was a life-changing moment she never saw coming—let alone something she'd one day turn into a hit Netflix film.
This week, we sat down with Claire to talk about her MS journey, from the early days of diagnosis to navigating friendships, rediscovering love, and channelling it all into her powerful film Take My Hand.
Claire opened up about the reality of living with a chronic illness, the importance of surrounding yourself with the right people, and what it was like to reflect on her experience through the lens of filmmaking—and so much more.
