Lifetime Television has recruited Jennifer Aniston, Alicia Keyes, Demi Moore, and Monster writer/director Patty Jenkins to direct five short films exploring the impact of breast cancer, Entertainment Weekly reports.
 
The anthology, titled Project Five, will “use humor and drama to focus on the effect that breast cancer and its diagnosis have on relationships and the way women perceive themselves, while searching for strength, comfort, medical breakthroughs and the way women and ultimately, a cure.”
 
“Our hope with Project Five is to entertain inform and inspire dialogue, research and prevention,” Aniston said in a statement. “We want these films to move people and empower those affected by breast cancer to stand tall through this challenge, which impacts all of our lives, no matter who we are.”
 
Aniston will also executive produce the films along with Paula Wagner (Mission: Impossible), Marta Kauffman (Friends), Kristin Hahn (The Departed), and Francesca Silvestri (Greg the Bunny). The fifth director will be announced in the coming weeks.
