We are delighted to welcome director Thomas Laurance and producers Cassandra Sigsgaard and Verity Wislocki to join in person at both screenings for a Q&A.
In times of crisis, ordinary people instinctively step up to help each other in the absence of positive government action. On Our Doorstep tells the story of a humanitarian crisis at the Jungle camp in Calais, governments in paralysis, and untrained grassroots civilians attempting to fill the gap. Creating an intimate patchwork of the experiences of refugees and volunteers, this film offers a fresh perspective on the continuing refugee crisis and asks: what is our responsibility in a crisis like this and what are the limits of citizen action?
