Jennifer Aniston is set once more to get behind the camera and direct a short film for a great cause such as breast cancer.The 42 year old actress will join Alicia Keys, Demi Moore and Monster and Entourage director Patty Jenkins to direct one of a series of five short films that will together comprise Lifetime's Project Five.
The films will each depict the lives of a different woman battling breast cancer and the anthology series will explore the impact of the disease on both the lives of the sufferers as well as those around them.
''Our hope with Project Five is to entertain, inform and inspire dialogue, research and prevention. Otherwise, our goals are small.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.'' said Jennifer to UsWeekly.
This is not the first time that Jennifer Aniston gets behind the camera.She previously directed the short film ''Room 10'' in 2006 alongside the well known author Andrea Buchanan,as part of Glamour magazine's Reel Time's series.The above mentioned film won back then the Jury Prize at CineVegas International Film Festival!
