Bus Stop Films is a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to making the film industry more inclusive for those with disabilities. They have produced over 65 short films, winning more than 100 awards globally and reaching an audience of over 45 million.

Hugues has a storied career in media, managing his own creative agency, Guerrilla Films. His collaboration with Bus Stop Films underscores his personal dedication to mentoring, fund-raising, and empowering individuals from marginalised communities.
