About

Feros Care approached us to produce a documentary web series, with episodes releasing towards the end of 2023 and early 2024.

SMASHING is a documentary series produced by Feros Care in collaboration with Ironbark Films, an all-inclusive filmmaking team. This six-part series celebrates the achievements, growth and impact of aged care professionals in a sector often impacted by negative stereotypes and misconceptions. Enjoy these transformative episodes which explore sexuality, innovation, culture and inclusion, and showcase the opportunities available within this dynamic sector. Through authentic storytelling and powerful narratives, SMASHING aims to transform perception by providing an accurate and promising view of aged care as a rewarding and fulfilling career choice. Each episode of SMASHING focuses on tackling a specific stereotype, showcasing diverse individuals within the industry who defy expectations and transform perceptions.

By challenging these stereotypes and celebrating diversity, SMASHING challenges you to reevaluate perceptions and consider the possibilities within aged care.
